The following traits can be applied to success in business and in personal life. Agree? Know any other indicators of greatness? Add them here!
| 1. | Emotional Intelligence: Emotional intelligence defines how you act and react to emotions. If you handle problems with a coolness of temperament that would make even Clint Eastwood frustrated, your emotional intelligence is higher and there is a greater chance people will follow and listen to you. |
| 2. | Persistence and Confidence: More people fail because they give up than any other factor. You must believe in yourself and continue to try even though you may not want to. “Failure is not an option!" |
| 3. | Creativity: The ability to solve problems in new and interesting ways. Whether you are inventing something, trying to make your business more profitable, or engaging in your daily work, creativity will allow you to find new and improved methods. |
| 4. | Ability to Handle Fear: Fear is one of those things that hold people back. To not try is the same as giving up. Strong leaders have fear but have learned to become educated about problems and swallow that fear when times are tough. |
| 5. | An Inquisitive Nature: Many people succeed because they have the wonderful ability to keep asking why? They want to know why something happens and move to improve that method. Their inquisitive nature allows them to achieve a deeper understanding of the problems faced in their business and in turn allows them to become more efficient. |
