What sets them apart is the fact that they are continuously measuring the time taken to complete tasks and updating it in their mental database. This helps them begin a task without wasting any time and end it with some buffer time on hand. The realist always play an important role when it comes to planning events or even saving a badly planned event. All in all, realists are prepared to make the best out of any situation, good or bad.
