Right now I really wish I am as I am required to at work but the truth to the matter is even if I try I still commit some minor mistakes that I sometimes I hate myself. I wish I were as organized and coherent as I should be. How about you? Are you very keen on details? Can you give me tips on how to achieve it? I would really appreciate your response on this.

only when it comes to work that needs to be done for a paying client i'll make sure every detail is complete so that there's no reason for the client to dispute anything or be annoyingly haughty-taughty when it comes time for them to pay

Right if money is involved and it can cause us our jobs then being keen on details is a must. Something that I really need to work on.

I share the same sentiments with you, I think my brain doesn't function properly. I guess the best way to achieve it is to always double check your work or let others to double check it for you if possible.

I admit there are times that I do not double check my work. I guess I should learn to be O.C. (obsessive-compulsive) in checking my work to avoid silly mistakes.

Yah, I think that is the best thing to do.

I am usually someone who is always looking for details in everything and I must also admit that my boyfriend does not like it, he thinks I am too clock type which always takes a clock and always a notebook to jot down the important details and work on them. Take a notebook and a simple pencil and jot down even the lightest details you are thinking, make a point wise, or simply a bullet form notes and work on them all, I am sure you will not miss anything at all though.

That sounds like a simple yet practical idea. I should take note of every detail that I shouldn't miss. I admit I now get so paranoid because I just hate it when I miss on the littlest details.

If you do the same thing every day,order and details learned over time. For new projects you must write a plan with steps and work after it. Talent of a leader is to put people in appropriate jobs. People who can not do things with more details to be made to jobs where plans are generally(they are only with ideas)

Like what they say, practice makes perfect so I guess I just have to learn from my mistakes and not do it again.

Frankly,many people haven't attention details.Some one said,details can decide the person success or not.We can see the important of details.But how to keen on details.I think you can do the things start from your own careful check.When you form the habit,you can keen on details.

At times I triple cheack things, like writings and the condition of something, while at other times I just don't even think about checking for mistakes, or anything at the small detail.

It's the mistakes on the little details that really frustrates me as these things can really be avoided. Triple check could probably and I should start applying that later.
