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 from 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 lead
his teams to 10 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 the small things, but from small things come
great things; therefore pay attention to details and you will experience
substantial progress in your overall educational experience.
