Take Pride in Quality of Your Work



•        Commit to Quality
Decide that with anything you do, you'll do it the right way. Just committing to quality will cause you to reconsider sending out a half-baked project and increase your quality.

•        Brainstorm
Think of ways you can do it better. Think of ways to put systems around your tasks.

•        Envision Success
Ask yourself "What would perfect execution look like for this task?" Now go do it.

•        Be Proud of Your Quality
If you take pride in your quality, you won't release non-quality items.

•        Solve the Problem, Not the Request
Sometimes a "simple" request is not so simple. Find out what the requester really wants, then give it to him.

•        Think big picture
Don't just solve the problem by applying a quick fix. See how it fits in the
big picture and determine if you san solve a big problem with just a little
more effort.

•        Don't Wait for Deadlines
It's inevitable that people rush to finish a task at the deadline. This only leads to more problems. The solution is simple- start early and plan your
schedule so that you finish early. Which leads to:

•        Exceed expectations
You've understood the expectations and you've set expectations- now do your best to exceed them. Everyone loves good surprises!
