Attention to Detail (7-10)

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 come in hand 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 team to ten consecutive national championships, was asked what he attributed his success to. Among a number of things, he mentioned paying 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 education attainment.

Communication is at the top of the list of skills that employers look for. And communication in the workplace often means writing.
Health professionals keep patient charts, researchers depend on the money they collect by writing grant applications, software engineers write technical specifications, and nearly everyone writes emails to people inside and outside their organization. And before you even get the chance to interview for a job, you'll need to present yourself in cover letters and resumes.
So, by taking writing serious and doing your best on every research paper, every lab report you write, every new post you write in your blog site, and every writing activity you engage in, you're preparing yourself for a good career.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing."

Theodore Roosevelt

Reflection: This quote, to me, lets me know that the right choice is ours. Whenever you have the chance, all you need to do is choose the right. The right will lead you into a direction/ path that not many people have been on. You must learn from your mistakes, and do what's best when possible. For example, if you find $1,000 on the floor, the right thing to do is to turn them in. You could've had the chance to take them, but it wasn't right.. so you chose the right.

"In life as in football, you won't go far, unless you know where the goalposts are."

Arnold Glasgow

Reflection: To me, this quote means that in order to succeed, you must have a goal, somewhere where you're aiming at. For example, how will you be able to graduate from college if you don't even know what you're studying for? Having goals makes things 100x easier/ less complicated for you therefore, always have something to look forward to. This quote is just a simpler way to explain goals.

 "Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices."

Albert A Montapert

Reflection: To me, this quote makes perfect sense. It's been said because people always go through this situation. Doing good things will give you a good ending, just how doing bad things will lead you to something bad. People receive what they deserve. If you choose the right, the right will pay off. If you choose the wrong, well, the wrong will continue behind you. You sometimes just can't get away from what has been done.

Part 3

Do The Reading
You need to do more than just read the chapters you are assigned- you're expected to understand them thoroughly. Here are some tips:

• Don't skim. Read all the material carefully.
• Break up difficult assignments into sections you can digest- chapters, subsections or even paragraphs.
• Look up any words that you don't understand.
• Pause to think about whether you understand the material; ask questions in class about anything that is unclear.
• Take notes instead of highlighting, this makes you think through the rephrase and key points.
• Create a summary sheet of what you learned from each assignment you read.

"Success is the dependent on effort."

Sophacles, Greek dramatist

Reflection: To me, this quote explains what's needed to be successful. In order to have a great future, you'll need a goal, somewhere you're aiming. With effort, all is possible. Knowing that you tried, did your best, and succeeded is the best feeling only because you put effort in whatever it was that you were doing. For example, if you study so many years, putting in effort to get the best grades, and graduated, then it all pays off. Effort is key.
