Hi ladies and my fellow gentlemen. Ok so I am here again to indulge in this revelling topic or will I say question as I will be addressing the second question on the ladies of hive contest #89.
How would you describe the traits of a successful woman?.
So before we start going in deep about what trait(s) make up a successful woman in my opinion. Let's have a look-see at some of the successful women in the 20th century and what traits they possessed that led to their success.
The reason for me picking women from the 20th century is because in my opinion they have stood the test of time and now have life long experiences worth learning from. If I were to pick from the 21st century then I wouldn't be doing much in my opinion because these women still have more to learn as our environment is in a constant change.
Anecdote of Three Successful Women in the 20th Century and their Traits.
1. Marie Curie
Famously known as the mother of modern physics, due to her research on x-ray. She was a hard working woman giving her time solely to her work. She had a tough time with both family and education, but with perseverance gained the knowledge she seek. The trait we see here is hardwork and dedication to work. Marie died due to possible exposure to radiation. One would argue that it was because of her bond with her work . Biography From
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie
2 . Margaret Thatcher
(Aka Baroness Thatcher, Aka Iron Lady
She was also a scientist but didn't do that for long as politics was her thing. She even got the nickname 'Iron Lady' for her uncompromising politics and leadership. Here we see determination and willingness to compete as a trait. These made her to be placed even above the women in her days as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Biography From
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Thatcher
3 . Oprah Winfrey (Oprah)
She is the only one alive on my list. She was the richest African-American in the 20th century. Her acting and talk show was what put her on the limelight. The trait that can be observed in Oprah is consistency. She worked her way from high school days till she became famous. Also good friendships, despite her famous nature she had few close friends who had been with her since her 20's and helped her in every aspect including the 'O Magazine'. Biography From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oprah_Winfrey
So, from this I will describe what I think are traits of a successful woman.
Traits of a Successful Woman in my Opinion
Hardwork - The women listed above and others that have been successful, all worked hard for it. They didn't depend on anything or anyone for their progress. I think for a woman to be successful she must work even twice as much as a man. This is because they often have family to cater for and children to nurture. This alone is a workload, and so, hardwork remains the foremost trait of a successful woman.
Consistency - Having to work hard is one thing, doing it regularly is another. It takes grit to wake up each day to a routine of work. If there isn't any constant effort to succeed then the hardwork put in will go amiss. For a successful woman being consistent in whatever field makes it easy to tackle problems when they do arrive
Resource Management- Most of the women whose success stories are still song today started from little beginnings. Some of them had little or no sponsors and they found a way to adapt and become productive. I think without a good management of the available resources at ones disposal success will remain a mirage.
Developing Meaningful Relationships- One thing that could mar success is bad relationships with people. This can translate from work to home and can damage ones ability to work productively. Maintaining good relationships on the other hand makes room for little improvements on personality and lifestyles, thus illuminating success.
I wouldn't be able to describe every single trait of a successful woman as they are mostly inherent and some peculiar. So you can drop some more suggestions in the comments below. I'll love to share them with my friends and also learn from them.

Bravo Buezor, this is well Written👏🔥
Absolutely agree with you on all your points💯
My definition of a successful woman, is the woman who knows how Love and be Loved back. A woman who knows when & how to hold, never letting go. A keep and a keeper, building nations from her little war room. I'm abit old school though.
It's amazing what one can draw from this question. I've learnt alot.
Bless you 🌺

Nice selection of famous successful women.
I arrived here via DreemPort 🤗❤️💕
Thank you for reading. There are more but I chose these.
A successful woman is a woman that has figured out how to thrive in a society dominated by men. She doesn't let her gender limit her. She has the "I can" spirit. She fails but she stands up each time she falls and she is determined to never give up until she achieves. A successful woman understands that hardwork isn't only the key to success but building meaningful relationships. These women you listed have shown us what it takes to be a successful woman in this contemporary society. Thanks for sharing
Thank you @zyzymena for this. I appreciate you reading and adding to the list of qualities or traits of a successful woman.
You are welcome
I love Prah Williams a lot. The traits mentioned are very true, I agree with you. A God fearing woman is also going to be very successful in all she does
Yes God fearing among all. Thanks for taking out time to read this.
Good selection, all that women were successful and teached us that they are no limit if you are constantly working hard.
Thank you for sharing this with us. Came here by DreemPort. 😀
In fact, you have done explicitly with this post. Yes, hard work can never be taken away from the prerequisites of becoming successful, then being consistent. I will also add that without fear of God, one can never be successful. Thanks for sharing
