There is an aura around confident people. They seem to get what they want, everyone seem to agree with them, one feels good if they are around and there is a sense of relief when the confident person says they will take care of something. Personally, I feel drawn into people that are confident and have always wondered what makes them so confident. Ofcourse they'd be extremely good in their craft, I was looking at other personality traits too.
Dr. Travis Bradberry, author of interesting books like Emotional Intelligence 2.0 and Leadership 2.0 lists the 12 habits of confident people.
1. They get their happiness from within
2. They don't pass judgement
3. They don't say yes unless they really want to
4. They listen more than they speak
5. They speak with certainty
6. They seek out small victories
7. They exercise
8. They don't seek attention
9. They aren't afraid to be wrong
10. They stick their necks out
11. They celebrate other people
12. They aren't afraid to ask for help
