Some great business tips come from the world of painting. Recently I had to paint a room in my home. Wasn’t that hard of a job. But as I got ready to pull out the brush in the paint, I realized I needed to go against some of my usual habits.

I like the exciting stuff, putting up the paint on the wall. That’s what I enjoy. I want to get to that finished product as soon as possible.

The only problem is, when it comes to painting, a lot of the prep work is almost more important than putting up the paint on the wall. I knew I needed to carefully tape the parts of the room but I didn’t want to have painted. I had to put drop cloths down, so so in case there would be any splatter, the paint wouldn’t go there.

In the past maybe I just risk it and hope that get it done all right. But then later, I might need to spend a lot more time cleaning up little mistakes, cleaning up the mess.

Same thing can happen at your job. Are there of those little details that you know you need to do but you kind of skip over because you want to get to the good stuff. You need to resist that urge.

Much as I like to get to that exciting stuff, I realize that my success will be much better would be much better, if I paid attention to the details. I’m a huge fan of shortcuts. I like saving time. But sometimes those details matter.

Think about when you cut corners, what are you paying in having to fix everything? Maybe it’s time to revisit that process, to understand that, hey, I don’t really some parts of this job I really don’t enjoy but by doing them I make myself that much more effective.
