One of the great advantages of studying in a country other than your own is that it gives you an opportunity to grow emotionally and intellectually in directions that you may not have grown in otherwise. So even though you may not have all the qualities listed yet, there is no reason why you cannot develop them now while you are preparing your applications.

When you go and live in another country without your family then all the tasks that your family did for you will now be your responsibility. Thus going to the bank, making your bed, doing laundry, paying bills, planning your study and social time, etc., are all things you will have to manage.
