Soft Skills/Competencies You Can't Do Without

Indispensable Soft Skills/Competencies

Among all the competencies/skills the ones that are most important for every person are the following:
  1. Goal Setting
  2. Time Management
  3. Managing Anger 
  4. Assertiveness 
Every individual at personal, professional and family level must start with setting up the goals in these respective areas. The goal should be long term goals, medium term goals and short term goals. Obviously each goal must be accomplished within a specified time.

The time element in goal setting then makes you to look at the second competency/skill and that is time management. Time is the most valuable resource with every human being and one should know how to utilize it most prudently.

Almost every goal of yours will involve interactions with people. And so interpersonal relationships play a vital role in your life. Effective interpersonal relations facilitate goal accomplishment. Two most important aspects of any interpersonal relationship are managing your anger and yet being assertive while dealing with the people. 

Therefore it is important that everyone should gain authentic and necessary knowledge in these competencies/skills and put it to practice in the best ways. Effective implementation depends on how well you have picked the threads of these subjects.
