Jordan Peterson talked about how this is one of the most common traits in very successful people. The ability to be disagreeable. Trump is the best at it....You do, she does....lol
He's not saying all successful people are disagreeable. He's saying that a willingness to be disagreeable is more likely to lead to success.
This happens because people who don't want to offend, who want to be liked, who want to be agreeable, will frequently agree to things they shouldn't and will get stomped at the negotiating table by people who are willing to be disagreeable. Those are the people who say "No, that's not good enough. No deal." and walk away from the table. Then the person who wants to be agreeable says "Wait a minute, what if we do X?" and they give up something they didn't want to just to make the deal.
Or outside of business negotiations they are more likely to sacrifice their principles in the name of compromise rather than stand for what they believe in.
Successful people are often very agreeable, until they come across something that they cannot accept, in which case they disagree, which most people do not do. That is the point that is being made, and it is a very astute and important observation.
It's just a fancy way of saying what Trump has said many times: Be willing to walk away from a bad deal.
As someone who has led many MANY teams of people, hired countless new hires, drawn in so much new talent, fought with CEOs and Leaderships; I would say that being disagreeable is a fantastic trait in the modern world. Almost every single corporate office is filled with sycophants and yes men, people scared to lose their job or be passed over for a future promotion. It's the people who step in and say 'hey what the shit is this??' or 'yeah thats nice, but how about we do this, instead.' With the sheer amount of competition you face in the marketplace of ideas and visions, you absolutely should do everything you can do to stand out and put yourself above others.
That seems like assertiveness more than what people think of when they hear the word "disagreeable". Sounds like it's a matter of thinking that the word means something else.
Yes there are successful people who are agreeable and conscientious. There are also people who have low IQ and are successful. However, these personality traits can be measured as predictors of success. Conscientiousness is usually considered the best predictor of success, followed closely by intelligence. However, agreeableness is considered a negative predictor of success. Meaning the more agreeable someone is the less likely they are to be successful with everything else held constant.
So you are right, no "template" exists, but studies aren't looking for a template. They are looking at predicting something and agreeableness negatively correlates with success.
It's like tall people, on average, make more money than shorter people. Sure, I've met multi-millionaires who are under 5'5", but height is a predictor of earnings when you look at populations.
I used to pussy foot around, being acquiescent to just about everyone, hoping that being agreeable would help me get along with people better, and basically make every relationship smooth sailing.
What I found is that people have contempt for you when you are nice to them without cause. It's really strange because you would think they respect you more, be nicer back, etc. Nope. They actually treat you worse.
So now I'm just really candid with everyone. I'm still polite when I meet someone for the first time, but now if I disagree with someone, I don't keep it a secret.
Being a Trump supporter really toughens you up. We're already hated, so who gives a shit if telling the truth will make you more hated. You hate me anyway.
When you've banged world-class super model pussy most of your adult life, then a lying glorified blogger that has neckbeards drooling over her isn't going to impress.
And they probably secretly are attracted to Trump precisely because he doesn't put them on a pedestal and acts like a real man rather than the beta soy boys they typically meet.
?? So you mean you actually you want to eat this presstitute's ass and let her sit on your face and worship her as a goddess, huh? Why? You never been with a woman ever?
I can't think of a single other politician more suited for this timeline. Not a single one. When has Bernie Sanders called out the media to their faces? He's trying, finally, lately. But, weak sauce. I remember when the Left distrusted the media almost as much as we do. What they've devolved into is a real shame. Oh well! Trump 2020!!!!
I am not aware of who this is since I don't ever watch MSM. Can you link that tweet please? (The witches asking the broom questions aren't shown during the briefings so it's hard to tell them apart.)
Arrogant cunt, got away her whole life talking like that to people, demanded shit from her mommy and daddy who never reeled her in; THEN went to college to take journalism because she's too stupid to do anything else and got a superiority complex. Not an uncommon thing. (Fredo)
These fucking hacks are so disrespectful. Who the fuck does she think she is trying to speak over the President of the United States. She should be banned from the White House.
Damn I just posted the same sentiment. I wouldn’t fucking interrupt Barack Obama if he was speaking to me, regardless of my feelings toward him. These people have no idea the privilege they have to talk to a man of that caliber.
She's seriously speaking to the man as if he's a coworker. For sure there's something to be said about the fact that the president is a public servant at the end of the day, but show a little fucking common courtesy to the man elected by the greatest country of all time to the highest office on the planet.
I kinda like it. You know, in another country these slime bags would be in prison or disappeared. But here in America, we let all the short bus kids have their chance to nag and fart near the CEO of Team Murica - keeps him honest. Makes for excellent memes. If we didn't have this entertainment, we wouldn't have such warm feelings for Trump. He would be another boring asshole in office, rather than a nimble navigator.
I wouldn't mind it if it weren't for the double standard. They would have never dared do this to Obama because they were too busy slobbering all over his knob.
"You would not even have a country left" is frightening. 0bama, Clinton, or Biden we would have no country. But this is a really heavy thing for him to say. This problem has angles he is managing while calming and addressing the known problems, namely infected people and complications of a higly infectious novel coronavirus.
Hahahaha! If a professor had told those two bitches that they lied on papers they wrote the school would have expeled them. But when those same two birches lie on papers and the Highest Commander in America calls them out. It's water off a ducks back.
That doesn't work so well if the guy is already getting sucked off by his wife/gf. Then again, you said professor, so probably single or a cheating scumbag?
wouldnt exactly call her hot. I do want to eat her face off. but its not sexual its more the pure white-hot anger of being hoodwinked by these fucks for decades
People in the media like Bill Maher have literally said they would prefer the economy to tank if it meant damaging Trump's chance's of reelection. Every TDS libby feels that way.
Trump's got them playing themselves. The more they refuse to cover his objectively amazing crisis management, the more irrelevant they become to the people.
What a disrespectful hack. Professional interruptress.
All of these idiot reporters feel entitled to interrupt Our President as if he were just one of the typical people in/around their life that they delight in shouting down. Worthless ridiculous pampered attention-whores. Truly the Enemy Of The People, our society would be much better off without their race-baiting and false propaganda.
I will be happy to see that clump of narcissists sink into the Slowly Draining Swamp.
>I don't know if that's Clinton Crime Family operative 0livia Nuzzi or just some generic rude "journalist." Whoever she is, she's unprofessional and has no business being there.
Savage fucker, love him. If I were in VP's spot there is no way I could have kept a straight face lol. He lets her know she's about to be viciously fucked, "just so you understand, are you ready". God Emperor.
Love it when he calls them out right to their face. So many people have trouble speaking the truth and he does it so easily.
Its hard to be blunt and to the point in the beginning but when you get the hang of it booooy is it liberating.

Well, I bet it has a nuanced explanation as a personality trait. Just look it up - it's one of the "Big Five" personality traits.
saving this comment so I can recite it back to leftists I know come closer to election time. It's so true!

Interesting, I have not heard JP talk about that trait. Remember what video or context I can go look up to hear more about that?
Watch his interview with Katie Newman.
It sure is.
I used to pussy foot around, being acquiescent to just about everyone, hoping that being agreeable would help me get along with people better, and basically make every relationship smooth sailing.

No other man has the balls to talk to 20 year old girls like this guy does. He never puts them on the pedestal that other men do.
When you've banged world-class super model pussy most of your adult life, then a lying glorified blogger that has neckbeards drooling over her isn't going to impress.
That's not a 20 year old girl.
I doubt it's under 40 and I doubt it's even human.
They all act like 20 year old girls.
And they probably secretly are attracted to Trump precisely because he doesn't put them on a pedestal and acts like a real man rather than the beta soy boys they typically meet.
Not sure what you're calling this guy a troll for. Did you misread his comment?
Right? Guy seems to be either illiterate or off his meds. Thanks bro!
?? So you mean you actually you want to eat this presstitute's ass and let her sit on your face and worship her as a goddess, huh? Why? You never been with a woman ever?
What did he say? And who was it? That "FuckingMoronsAllOver" troll?
So? Acucksta is old and ugly. No one is ever going to accuse Trump of being a misogynist for kicking Acucksta in the ass.
Why are you so upset about Trump taking out 20 year old girls with his ruthless truth?
Do you have a 20 year old daughter who's a presstitute?
I can't think of a single other politician more suited for this timeline. Not a single one. When has Bernie Sanders called out the media to their faces? He's trying, finally, lately. But, weak sauce. I remember when the Left distrusted the media almost as much as we do. What they've devolved into is a real shame. Oh well! Trump 2020!!!!
It’s hilarious. Bernie has been attacking Trump more than the media or Biden. The guy doesn’t even know what race he’s in.
Love it! The Lefties are all confused.
They have never dealt with someone like Trump before!!!
Bernie's hosting a variety show podcast like Ed Sullivan.
I so admire that in Trump.
With no cursing
At this point I would have had to invent new swear words to stop being repetitive. 😂
My favorite part. lol
Trump is Mansplainer-In-Chief.
Fucking awesome.
Who is this cunt and why does she think she can spout off like that?
Yes, this isn't reddit, and I called her a cunt. Accurately.
No need to be PC on here. She is a cunt
Turbo Cunt
CUNT
Cuntzilla!
Mike Hunt
Su-pa cunt
Hillarieeeeee
Cunt-for-brains
No wait! That one is back. Check this out. I don't want to put it up as an actual post seeing as I actually snuck a peek from drudgery.

Chief White House Cuntrrespondent
aussie voice Ya cunt!
feel great isn't it. able to speak your mind.
Arrogant cunt, got away her whole life talking like that to people, demanded shit from her mommy and daddy who never reeled her in; THEN went to college to take journalism because she's too stupid to do anything else and got a superiority complex. Not an uncommon thing. (Fredo)
Notice her finger pointing, smh.
These fucking hacks are so disrespectful. Who the fuck does she think she is trying to speak over the President of the United States. She should be banned from the White House.
If she did that to Obama she would be ruined. Fucker thought he was a king. And yet they call Trump a dictator...
He wasn't even king in his own house
Big mike in the house.
He always came in swinging for sure.
They wore out their kneepads slobbering all over Obama's celery stick.
If anyone did this to barry they would immediately be labeled "racist" and run out of the press corps
If she did that to Xi she'd be in a re-education camp and count herself lucky.
I doubt she would get to a camp.
^This!
And they claim that GEOTUS is thin-skinned & fragile!!!
Damn I just posted the same sentiment. I wouldn’t fucking interrupt Barack Obama if he was speaking to me, regardless of my feelings toward him. These people have no idea the privilege they have to talk to a man of that caliber.

Saw this. It was great. I never miss a daily briefing.❤️
Honestly, the written speech is boring AF. The Q&A is entertainment gold.
I love this man. Total homo for Trump.
Wait, media told me that all russian bots were homophobic???

Reeesist!

This is a correct statment. I am so proud that he said it.
Savage kek
Hahahaha! If a professor had told those two bitches that they lied on papers they wrote the school would have expeled them. But when those same two birches lie on papers and the Highest Commander in America calls them out. It's water off a ducks back.
They'd suck off the professor and he would beg them for more. That's how they get their power over guys.
That doesn't work so well if the guy is already getting sucked off by his wife/gf. Then again, you said professor, so probably single or a cheating scumbag?
YOU ARE FAKE NEWS
SO IS THAT BITCH
Interrupting the president of the United States. This may be the military in me, but who the fuck does she think she is?
This is exactly why all these hot chicks need to be knocked right off the pedestals that men put them on.
wouldnt exactly call her hot. I do want to eat her face off. but its not sexual its more the pure white-hot anger of being hoodwinked by these fucks for decades
REKT
Rekt’m? Hell, it killed ‘em.
Narrator: She was not ready.
You do she does. You will she has!
I'm on my fifth time watching this and my smile is getting bigger than the Grinches ea h time I watch this.
"Are you ready for this"
She showed such disrespect for him. She deserved much worse than she got.
People in the media like Bill Maher have literally said they would prefer the economy to tank if it meant damaging Trump's chance's of reelection. Every TDS libby feels that way.
STUMPED
+420
lmfao
Truth Bomb from POTUS
Dear LORD, he just gets right to the point, doesn't he?
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood.
The man is a genius!
REVOKE HER PRESS PASS
What a fucking cunt this bulging and droopy eyes faced bitch is.
Right to her MF face! The absolute madman!
this is why they starting to reduce showing these briefings.
Trump's got them playing themselves. The more they refuse to cover his objectively amazing crisis management, the more irrelevant they become to the people.
Rekt 'em? Damn near killed 'em!
Pence trying really hard not to laugh. LOL
I love it trumps a boss

It's really fucked up that the left hates Trump so much that they would rather destroy the country than have him in office. They are cancer.
Are you ready? Ha ha BTFO you cuck. Loved the pointing, you do, she does.
Reminds me during the 2016 campaign saying to that twat Katy Tur, “go on, try getting it out.” Good times.
“Or you wouldn’t even have a country left.”
This is actually the sad truth.
I fucking love this man!
Is there something wrong with me if I watched this 20 times in a row?
#PoundMeToo
I love seeing someone BTFO some mouthy disrespectful twaddletwat like that! <3 <3 <3
Savage fucker, love him. If I were in VP's spot there is no way I could have kept a straight face lol. He lets her know she's about to be viciously fucked, "just so you understand, are you ready". God Emperor.
God, I love this President.
That's it, they know something we don't. We wouldn't have a country left?
I wonder which refugee camp I'd be in right now if Hillary had won. Great People's Re-education Camp of the California Wasteland, #1138?
undervoted post
"You do. She does."
Savage.
I always wonder what Pence thinks during all of this clubbing of the media.
"... you wouldn't even have a country left," [if you didn't have these people behind me...]
Anyone who says he's not for the people and for this country can leave.
