1.Attention to detail is something everyone can and should do--especially
in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human-resources expert notices this in
the job applications that come across his desk every day. "It’s amazing how many
candidates eliminate themselves,"he says. 2."Resumes(简历)arrive
with stains. Some candidates don’t bother to spell the company’s name correctly.
Once I see a mistake,I eliminate the eandidate,"Crossley concludes. "if they
cannot take care of these details,why should we trust them with a job"
3.Can we pay too much attention to details Absolutely.
Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they
work toward. "To keep from losing the forest for the trees,"says Charles
Garfield,associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco,"we
must constantly ask ourselves how the details we’re working on fit into the
larger picture. If they don’t,we should drop them and move to something else. "
4.Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer
scientist at NASA. "The Apollo moon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of
the time. "says Garfield. "But a successful landing was still likely because we
knew the exact coordinates of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments as
necessary. "Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every
task we undertake. 5.Too often we believe what accounts for
others’ success is some special secret or a lucky break (机遇). But rarely is
success so mysterious. Again and again,we see that by doing little things within
our grasp well, large rewards follow.
