Attention to Detail
7 of 10
When you double-check your calculations for a math problem or
cite sources carefully in a research paper, you’re paying close attention to
detail. That skill comes in handy in any workplace, whether you maintain a
database, keep a log of the hours you spend with clients or write e-mails.
John Wooden,
UCLA’s former great basketball coach who led his team to ten consecutive
national championships, was asked what he attributes his success to. Among a
number of things, he mentioned that paying attention to detail was one of the
most important qualities for successful coaching and for high achievement in
any worthwhile pursuit. He even paid attention to how his player would lace up
and tie their shoe strings. If they didn’t tie them correctly, he would teach
them how.
Details may be small things, but
from small things come great things; therefore, pay attention to details and
you will experience substantial progress in your overall education attainment.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!
