ABSTRACT
Writing about the 10 Qualities of a Good Researcher represents a great responsibility since it is not simple to assemble in a concise manner all the important qualities of a good researcher. Knowing the difficulties lying ahead, I would like to suggest the following qualities: interest, motivation, inquisitiveness, commitment, sacrifice, excelling, knowledge, recognition, scholarly approach, and integration. The characterization and understanding of these qualities would be extremely helpful to those who are beginning the exciting field of research.
To be a good researcher first requires the intention to be involved in research and immediately thereafter to show a dedicated interest to do the best research possible. From there we must accumulate the knowledge needed to advance the current ideas already existent in the research world. The intention of this writing is to introduce 10 qualities that I consider essential for a good researcher to succeed.
