Willpower / self-control

This is a simple method that fairly accurately assesses the potential for success in life.
An analysis of the responses of 32,648 respondents, conducted in 2012, showed that there is indeed a connection between success in life and high scores in the test.

For example, the essence of the popular puzzle, based on the experiments of the psychologist John Ridley Stroup, is that the subject is shown the names of the colors colored by another color: blue, red, yellow. The task is to name the color by which the word is colored, ignoring what was written.

For many years Michael Intslicht believed. It turned out that no. He and his colleagues conducted both tests among 2,400 people and realized that there was no connection between them. People could argue that they easily resist temptations, and at the same time they can not cope with puzzles.
