4 Zodiacs Who Don’t Back Away From A Challenge

ARIES

An Aries can’t stand a threat to their bravado, so when faced with a challenge, they can’t let anyone see them back down. They need to constantly prove their competence to the world and want to be remembered for epic qualities like bravery, perseverance, and leadership. You can’t be a fearless leader by turning your back on a challenge and running away. Whatever challenges they make, they’re always wondering how their reputation will be affected. They can’t afford to be looked at as weak, so you’ll never see them calling a truce like Putin and Prigozhin. They’re not going for magnanimity. An Aries wants to battle it out until there is a clear victor left standing. 

CANCER

Cancers never back away from a challenge because they’re not afraid of hard things. They’ve been through the gamut enough times to know they are capable of shouldering enormous burdens. This mindset and life experience allows them to look at a looming challenge as something temporary that must be risen to. Doing hard work doesn’t mean a lifetime of sloughing away at something impossible. It means putting your head down for a designated period of time until your goal is accomplished. It’s not digging a hole from Chicago to China, it’s more like digging your way out of a jail cell with a spoon. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel, no matter how long or tedious.

VIRGO

A Virgo rises to a challenge because there is nothing more attractive to them, especially if the challenge comes from an individual. Virgos got into more trouble than you could ever imagine playing truth or dare at sleepovers growing up because there was no dare they could turn down. They like to be seen as daring, provocative, and up for anything. And they are also the most competitive zodiac sign you will ever meet. There is nothing they want to do more than the very thing someone bets them they can’t do. Thank god the days of dueling are in the past because a Virgo was certainly involved in the origins of the phrase “the gloves come off”. They cannot be taunted and just let someone get away with it. They need to beat them at their own game and never let them forget it.

CAPRICORN

Capricorns are the hardest workers of the zodiac. They are the metaphoric Little Red Hen who grew its own wheat to make its own bread and then was offended when everyone else wanted to eat it. Capricorns are never afraid of a big project, but they want the credit they deserve for completing that kind of work that is daunting to others. If they do 99% of the group project, they want 99% of the grade. They’re not going to let anyone else ride on their coattails. They live for the reward, which is why they don’t shy away from the hardest jobs. They know the more they exert themselves, the more they can gloat when it’s all said and done
