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 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 teams to ten consecutive national
championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of
things, he mentioned that paying attention to details 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 players 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 educational attainment.
