Perseverance implies (to me at least) that you chose the correct thing to persevere on. You’re right, ppl can be hardworking on the wrong things but I don’t like to define stuff by the negative aspect. I start with the premise that we’re all discussing best case scenario.I reckon that consistency should be on there.
What's the difference between perseverance or not quitting and consistency? You could do a lot of work for a prolonged period, but if you're not doing work on the same things in the same direction, then you could be going round in circles. So you need grit and consistency.
I also reckon that some kind of disagreeableness or risk tolerance should be on there. If you are very risk averse and like fitting in, then you will strongly desire to be normal and follow the script, just like most other people do. So you have to be able to "do your thing" or as Arnold Schwarzenegger said "Don't listen to the naysayers".
You probably also need to be fairly good at learning. If you're not interested or you are not very good at it then this will lead to problems.
I think Resistance or Imperturbability is one of the most important qualities but I think it depends on who you’re leading? That’s why I stuck with five things. It’s really hard to narrow down what a truly great leader ought to focus on. Everybody has different strengths.
