1. most important characteristic

2. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
I think the most important characteristic that a person can have is probably a sense of optimism; a positive outlook...on life, in general. If you get depressed or down on yourself very easily, it’s hard to be successful. The world has become so demanding of people to put on a happy face and to give the impression that everything is okay;

3. that if you’re not able to do that, you’re going to struggle, and if you can do it genuinely and authentically, I think it provides you with a leg up over the competition. Even when things are going wrong; if you can see the silver lining in the dark cloud, I think that is a very positive characteristic that people can have.

4. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
Honesty is something that you can’t trust anymore. I could be the most honest person you’ve ever met, and still, deep inside, you won’t trust me. Intelligence can be found anywhere, anytime on the Worldwide Web. Just because you read that article doesn’t make you an expert, but a lot of people believe you are an expert.

5. As for sense of humor, what is a sense of humor outside of relating
As for sense of humor, what is a sense of humor outside of relating? You cannot make someone laugh, you cannot get someone to become a part of your life unless you relate with them first. And I honestly believe we live in a society that is all based on me, me, me, me. And if it’s about me, and I’m not relating with you, then there’s not even a sense of humor.

6. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
I think that the most important characteristic that a person can have to be successful in life is confidence. I think that if you walk into any situation confidently, your head held high; even if you’re not sure what you’re doin’, if you walk in acting like you know what you’re doing; if you walk in with that air of confidence, people are gonna pay attention.

7. They might not like what you have to say, but they are gonna pay attention. And I think that that works throughout life – if you are...if you’re looking to ask a girl on a date; if you walk up to her confidently; she’s more than likely not gonna blow you off. Now, that’s not to be confused with arrogant, because ‘confident’ and ‘arrogant’ are very close to each other, but if you’re confident...

8. if you just know, and you walk in that room
if you just know, and you walk in that room...say, you’re in an interview – I’ve done this in my own life – you walk in to an interview to get a job, and you walk in believing in your head that you’ve already gotten that job, that means you walk in with an air of confidence, and you are able to influence that person’s decision simply by your confidence. Believe me, it really does work. See? That sounded pretty confident, didn’t it? I know.

9. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
Honesty is the most important characteristic to have because you can be as intelligent as Einstein was or have the greatest sense of humor in the world and make people crack up, but if you’re not honest, people...people can sense that and you’re not gonna be successful in life because people aren’t gonna trust you.

10. There was a guy that I grew up with – boy, he could just crack you up, make you laugh like crazy. But he was always lyin’ and it just got to the point where you didn’t want to be around the guy, ‘cause you knew what was comin’ out of his mouth wasn’t true.

11. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic that a person can have to be successful in life? I believe the most important characteristic a person can have to be successful in life is intelligence, and this can be street smarts, academic smarts, geeky smarts...

12. you know, whatever smarts that that person has, it will make them successful in life. My intelligence lies in writing and voice acting and piano and a couple of other various things. Other people’s intelligence lies in Math, or Science; whatever their intelligence is, that will make them successful in life.

13. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
I would have to say that the most important characteristic that I have found is probably intelligence, or at least education level. A sense of humor, yes, that helps you deal with things. Honesty, definitely. But there are successful people in this world that, we can admit, were not honest.

14. That doesn’t make them good people, but it doesn’t take away from their success as well. Intelligence, though, can get you very far, especially if we’re talking about intelligence that’s gotten through education, and what I’m talking about here is university education degrees; higher-level degrees...

15. those degrees and that level of intelligence seems to open doors for people. It seems to provide more opportunities for people to take. And the more opportunities you have out there, the more of a possibility that you will be successful in whatever your endeavors are.

16. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
I believe the most important characteristic that one can possess is integrity. Integrity. It encompasses many other things. Honesty, intelligence, strength, interrelationships, performance; it encompasses so many other characteristics, and to have integrity means that you have the strength and the courage to both fail and succeed. It allows you to be trusted.

17. Someone with integrity or great integrity is someone who’s very trustworthy and who can be counted upon, and that will take any individual a long way towards being successful in life, whether in business or personally, in one’s health, and in many other areas...in finances; so having integrity just enables you to be able to do really anything.

18. It’s just a matter of time before a person of integrity reaches success. It’s not a question of whether or not they will. Someone who has integrity has great balance as well. Their life is not swayed one way or the other; overly focused in one way or another. They have good balance and foundation in life. So integrity is just so key and so core with going ahead and living your life to the fullest.

The most important characteristic that a person can have to be successful in life? Wow, that’s a tough one. I would say, maybe intelligence. I think you have to be savvy. I think you have to figure out how the world works and be able to maneuver around all sorts of different situations.

20. You have to have intelligence to get a job
You have to have intelligence to get a job. You have to build a, be smart with your money. You have to be able to communicate well with other people. So I think if you’re trying to be successful in life, you need to have some intelligence.

21. Question 11. In your opinion, what is the most important characteristic – for example, honesty, intelligence, a sense of humor – that a person can have to be successful in life?
I would have to say that the most important characteristic that I have found is probably intelligence, or at least education level. A sense of humor, yes, that helps you deal with things. Honesty, definitely. But there are successful people in this world that, we can admit, were not honest.

22. That doesn’t make them good people, but it doesn’t take away from their success as well. Intelligence, though, can get you very far, especially if we’re talking about intelligence that’s gotten through education, and what I’m talking about here is university education degrees; higher-level degrees...

23. those degrees and that level of intelligence seems to open doors for people. It seems to provide more opportunities for people to take. And the more opportunities you have out there, the more of a possibility that you will be successful in whatever your endeavors are.
