IF EVERYONE HAD THESE THREE TRAITS....

Each individual has a mix of traits. Good and bad. Having this and lacking that. As it seems, that's how we're designed to be.

A world where everyone had three particular traits is not impossible but at the moment, it's seemingly lacking. I'd rather everyone had no negative trait at all than we all had a bunch of traits same. Wouldn't be a bad idea.
But then, if there were three traits that I would want for everyone to possess, they'll be these;

LOYALTY
This is simply sticking to a person or to your values inspite of the ups and downs. Many lack this. Humans can be selfish and sometimes I get to understand why. What I don't understand is how we hastily abandon one whom we claim to love when they face a crisis or for selfish gains. Loyalty embodies pure love. It is closely intertwined with integrity. It's having the opportunity to take advantage of someone but not taking it up. If you're here, be here. If you're there, be there. It would help everyone of us if we all stayed true to our values and beliefs. Being fair-weatherly isn't anything to be proud of. You can't even be confident in yourself if you go that way. It tells a lot of how disciplined a person is.

INTEGRITY
Honesty and unwavering commitment to doing what is right even when it is difficult is what this embodies. I believe it can be the bedrock of immense personal and societal values.
I was told from a tender age that a good name worths far more than possessions and I believe so. We can do with people who let their words be their bonds. I simply define integrity as bwing honest and forthright in everything one does with anyone he/she has contact with.
I like to ask that what's the worst the could happen if you stand with the truth? One or two misplacements, no doubt. And after that, you stand with your shoulders high that never can you be labeled corrupt. And trust me, in our world, so many positive happenings would be evoked with just this singular trait.

GRATITUDE
It's said that when you show appreciation, a person would be pleased and willing to do far more for you. We live in a world where entitlement reeks.
It's normal to expect appreciation when you have done something nice to/for someone, i don't see why the reverse cannot work. Its just common decency.
And also, it's unclear to me how we don't see that showing gratitude boosts happiness and internal peace.
A simple "thank you" can go a long way, enough to even attract more gifts and goodies, you know that

These ard the traits, if given the opportunity, that everyone should possess. They're very much possible to cultivate and build, even now. Our world would be a better place to live in with the presence of them in every individual. So, there you have it.

These days people lack integrity.
This is one thing I must teach my children to imbibe.
“As I have said, the first thing is to be honest with yourself. You can never have an impact on society if you have not changed yourself. Great peacemakers are all people of integrity, of honesty, but humility.”

Nelson Mandela

I would keep that wise saying at heart.
Integrity is an important virtue everyone should possess.
Thank you

I wish everyone possessed these traits, imagine how the world would be, people have an entitlement mentality so they fail to appreciate the things people do for them, they feel is their right.

I wish so too. Hopefully, we start by internally assessing ourselves

It's true. Some people no longer care about the "good name thingy." They're all about personal interests and it's very sad
