LABOR TO BE ACCURATE

“Accuracy is key to becoming an expert in your field. It’s also the quickest way to impress your manager. Don’t mistake busyness for productivity. Many people may appear to be productive, but they lack accuracy. For instance, in my community, the new mailman runs while delivering mail, but he often makes mistakes and delivers the wrong mail. As a result, I have to chase him down to return the mail. If you’re not precise, you’re exposing yourself to potential errors. This vulnerability could lead someone else to do your work. So, it’s crucial to be accurate in your work, presentation, and message delivery. It’s better to take four hours to complete a task correctly than to take eight hours to correct mistakes.”
