But there are good aspects of human nature, you should focus, before you can see clearly and make good decisions.

Then you can get rid of those too.

but this will take years of human progress, well above one or even 10 generations.

GOOD: Reason, ingenuity, meaning.

BAD: Ignorance, self-importance, hypocrisy.

Favorites: 
1. The range for variation, their quirks and range of beliefs. 
2. The stuff that a stellar few have made. 
3. The darker aspects of one's mind. 

Unfavorites: 
1. The lack of variation, their sameness. 
2. How few people are capable of making stellar things. 
3. The superficial socially expected barriers people use to hide the darker aspects of one's mind.

we can and will be more.

Unless we all become transhumanists, we only have room for regression.  

Good

- Naturally Competitive, it's what motivates our progress

- Naturally Cooperative, for the same reason above

- Always wanting more mentality, for again the same reason.

Bad

I don't believe there is a least favorite for me, because all aspects of human nature serve a purpose even if they seem bad or not. Every dynamic and tendency human nature has come to embody is a separate survival mechanism, if you think we're beyond benefiting from this nature, you're wrong.

My initial thought was, I could care less about human nature. But I figured I would try to humor you. 

Part of human nature (1), is to destroy oneself while creating the elaborate facade of doing the exact opposite. It's cool that there are some universal truths fixated across all cultures I suppose. Such as belief in a higher power (2), a societal order, and/or a regulatory philosophy of sorts. They aren't as unifying as we might hope they'd be however. I find most things about human nature cliche, or annoying. Things like belief in a higher being, and striving for personal growth just seem sort of ridiculous in the context of today's society. But, I am jaded. I think it's due to the fact I wish I was exempt from human nature all together. But I'm not. I'm going to go eat Mexican food now. How epicurean of me. 

(1) human nature: "The characteristics of human nature include being playful, seeking scientific knowledge, language and indulging in gossip, being epicurean, developing societal legislation, and being clandestine." 

(2) belief in a higher power: All cultures believed in something

There's nothing to really like or dislike. 

From what I have observed human nature can be passionate and curious. Testing new limits, a breaking from the confines sort of thing. Which is admirable, it's romanticized. 

But each aspect of every individual does indeed have two sides. Passion being one of the most dangerous.

That is such a non-answer. Traveling with you had it seem like there were things about people that you did not enjoy, so unless you hate every trait equally...

i like the ability of humans to rise above their nature

What is that, rising above their nature? Nothing can rise above its nature or surpass its potential. If you think it did, you've assessed its nature or potential wrong from the beginning.

Albeit a technically correct objection, you do get the meaning of that phrase, right?

The ability to "rise" above the shackles of biology and primal instincts (or attempt to) is something I like as well.
