Sloppy work is worth avoiding as it puts short term gains ahead of long term growth. In this episode, I discuss the value of doing things properly; crossing one’s t’s and dotting one’s i’s. It may seem like the slower, less efficient way to do something, but in the long term it is actually more efficient because it prevents having to go back and check one’s work, and/or having to scrap a lot of work that was done to begin with.
The negative impact of sloppy work may be imperceptible in the short term, but in the long term it brings progress to a halt. It is like eating fast food. It may give one a temporary energy boost. But over the years, it erodes away the health and causes disease. Doing things slowly and mindfully, on the other hand, is like eating healthy food. It builds one up day by day, slowly but surely, even though it may not be fun in the short term.
