Let me be straight with you: how you do anything is how you do everything. If you’re careless with small tasks and don’t take them seriously, no one will trust you with anything bigger. That’s the truth. People pay attention. They’re always watching, and they remember who takes pride in the little details and who cuts corners. They understand that if you can’t be excellent in the little things, then you can’t be excellent in the big things.
The way you handle small tasks reveals your capacity for greater ones. The care you give to unseen work determines the future opportunities you’ll be given. That is why the small things are never just small; they’re the foundation. They reveal your attitude, your discipline, and your standards. Do them well, and you’ll earn trust, respect, and responsibility. Do them poorly, and you’ll quietly be ruled out of the opportunities that could change your life.
