Appropriate studies were conducted by Dr. Arthur Poropat. Here is his list:
Awareness
Openness
Ability to cooperate
Emotional stability
Extraversion
As we see, it is believed that the main qualities in the 21st century are the ability to cope with their emotions and find a common language with other people.
How do they affect success?
There are three reasons why these character traits are important:
People who have a higher level of these qualities are much more likely to achieve greater goals.
In 85% of cases, financial success is achieved by those who have more developed "soft" skills.
People prefer to deal with those who like them and who they trust.
What character traits are important?
In addition, Dr. Poropat highlights specific character traits that need to be developed.
Self- control
When you are able to control yourself, you are able to own and your emotions. This means that you are more effective in dealing with the negative and crisis situations that happen every day.
People prone to self-regulation, in response to the stimulus, take a break and try to assess the situation rationally and critically.
Growth mentality
In this respect, there are two types of people:
Those who believe that the skills are fixed and they can not be improved.
Those who believe that any skill can be improved
The former remain at approximately the same level throughout their lives. They judge, criticize and do not believe in any positive changes. The latter are in constant development: they read, improve their skills, keep diaries, study, create their own companies.
This mentality is difficult to change, but it is still possible. It starts with reading books on self-development, which will show that with the proper level of perseverance you can learn anything.
Flexibility
By drawing conclusions from errors and setbacks, it is very important for progress to understand what exactly you did wrong. And in the future to act on this basis, adjusting to the conditions.
Passion
Passion and enthusiasm are important, because they allow a person to work and achieve their goals without regard to motivation. Look at how Ilon Mask works - it seems that he does not sleep at all. And about what he does, he can talk with burning eyes for hours on end.
Empathy
Empathy is one of the most important skills that you need to develop. Learn to deal with your emotions and the emotions of others. So you can be more effective socially.
Awareness
Awareness includes the ability to stay organized, plan ahead and maintain the direction of your movement. A conscious person always knows what he is doing and why.
Openness to new experiences
The world is changing very quickly. If you are able to work with large amounts of information, learn new things and retain competence, companies will queue up so that you work with them. Expand your horizons.
Social skills
Networking and teamwork can be one of the most important factors in career success. People adore those with whom it is easy and simple to communicate, to whom you can rely and who you can trust.
