Traits and workplace success
Recently, six traits were identified that are consistently linked to workplace success: Conscientiousness, adjustment, ambiguity acceptance, curiosity, courage, and competitiveness.
Each trait may have drawbacks at extremes. The relative importance of each trait will be determined by the job you are doing. Knowing the traits can also aid in personal development so that you can identify your own strengths and weaknesses and the ways you may account for them.
Conscientiousness
Conscientious people are committed to plans and ensure they carry them out accurately. They consider the wisdom of their decisions for the long-term.

Defining Personality
While we often talk about personality, psychologists disagree on what exactly constitutes personality.
Personality is then broadly defined as the characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that originate within the person and make a person unique. It is what makes you, you.
Key Characteristics of Personality
- Personality is organized and consistent.
- Personality is generally stable, but the environment can influence it. A shy personality in social situations might take charge and be more outspoken in an emergency.
- Personality causes behaviours to happen. You react to your environment based on your personality.

How To Generate New Article Ideas - Darius Foroux
Always collect good material
Writing is like pursuing a healthier lifestyle. It all depends on what we consume. Therefore we must take into consideration what we read, listen to, watch, and experience.
Jot down every single idea you have
Most of us tend to forget things even though we told ourselves "Ah, I'll remember it later. No need to write it down." However, we must think about our future selves. Your future self doesn't know what you're talking about when you mention a word or two.
Instead, place notes that can help your future self to remember what you originally had in mind so you know exactly what to write.
Research, research, research
In the pursuit of becoming a great writer, we must also become great researchers. We are meant to assemble the words and ideas that will resonate with our audience.
A great example of this is Robert Greene and his work 48 Law of Power. His work contains many historical stories and that wouldn't be possible without research.
