The same way every other organism evolved. Naturally selected traits accumulated advantages within a certain environment.
Could you be more specific? I mean up until the common ancestors with the chimps we were just accumulating the same traits as the great ape variation of primates gained. Some traits were emergent (tool using/making, sweat glands), some a side effect of our changing diet (reduced/atrophied appendix). Other clearly selected for (sociability, and communication of intentions.) After bifurcation from chimpanzees, our ancestors gained bipedalism and lived on the savannah where we adapted to being hunters, and very abstract problem solvers. Somewhere along the way, we acquired language capacity and ultimately we turned into the most lethal hunting organism the earth has ever seen.
