Your best mental skill?

I feel like I reason well. In times of conflict I am able to be rational and smooth things over.
 
I can ignore bullshit.
 
Unwavering pessimism.

...no, seriously. I'm never disappointed because I never expect anything, and it gives me a dry sense of humour. Plus I'm always making people feel better about themselves because all they have to do is look at me and they're reminded that things could always be worse - they could be me. It's a highly beneficial mental skill for myself and those around me!
 
Huh I don't know, I guess I'm nice? Well it's for you to say eh

But really I am never in a good fight with someone. I try to stay calm, accept the other like they are, with flaws and everything (because nobody's perfect).

As for what I know, not everybody like me but I don'T think anyone hates me?
 
Critical thinking. As a (wannabe) scientist it's probably the most important skill you can develop. You've got to be absolutely thoroughly critical of everything and be able to spot any assumptions or shortcomings, no matter how much you want to believe something. If you can't do this, your work is probably gonna be crap due to it being full of assumptions and missing important experiments which you require to demonstrate your arguments.

shame it makes all my friends think i'm an argumentative dickhead (y)
