Attention to Detail 7-10

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.

Initiative is creativity, inventiveness, originality, ingenuity, imagination. And future employers value can-do professionals who come up with new ideas and chart their own court through projects, employees who are self-reliant. Self-reliant people are self-starters who don't procrastinate on getting the job done. They know what is required to do and do it. They don't wait be told many times. Succeeding in high school, college, and in the career world is taking the initiative.
