It seems real to me, and I see it in my professional life, near any big event I'm still conscious and hardly ever nervous.

Poker develops strategic thinking, emotional control, risk assessment, and resilience. It hones decision-making skills, patience, and the ability to read others, fostering a nuanced understanding of probability and psychology.

Poker definitely develops such qualities as patience, discipline, self-control and concentration. But these qualities can be developed only in those players who really play poker, not bingo.

If you're a winning poker player you've developed your mind to be patience, mentally tough and have decent self control and very little tilt. Poker helps the mind with thinking, reasoning, patience, discipline, concentration and thinking logically. All traits of being a good business manager. Plus likely other small traits one doesn't typically think about. For example I don't play much live poker but have worked on my live game so I have little to no tells. I've also worked my live game and mind to look for tells, red a table/room or situation quickly. This has helped me greatly in the business world and everyday life when it comes to reading people and situations.

EDIT: In my opinion pretty much any good and successful business manager/owner if he wanted could become a good winning play if he choose to and took it serious and studied. He likely already has the 3-4 main keys to winning long term(bankroll management, mental toughness/tilt control and patience). You need all those+ to be successful at business. All he needs is to learn some basic poker+exploits for his player pool and he'd crush micro/low stakes.

Cheers!!!

I think poker develop the main control of your life money. Your bankroll administration teach you how control your money in your life.
Poker also helps you in disipline and self control.
That is a good game for improve life skills.

I know one that is working for me right ...life is simple we are the ones who complicated her ...with the plays we try to do at the tables ))

 

[Magallaneroy]

Patience and wait for the right moment to play everything.

 

[jproy444]

Patience, patience and patience. Killer instinct also.

 

[Cooking]

For me the principal is patience, because patience is essential to poker, even if it's playing one tournament or to grind slowly through the stakes.

 

[demibar]

I think all above others said just I would add like other things developpe the memory and maybe at some you can control your anger

 

[s0ftdumps]

Gotta have patience but also be prepared and ready for opportunity

Reading people, patience, discipline. Also to focus on a goal and relentlessly try to achieve it.
