Examples of failure due to lack of attention to detail

A typical example of failure without attention to detail: Small mistakes are not mistakes?

When the rescue ship dispatched by the Brazilian Ocean Shipping Company arrived at the accident site, the "Rim Atlantic" ship had disappeared, the 21 crew members were gone, and there was only one life-saving radio on the sea that sounded a rhythmic distress signal. The rescuers looked at the calm sea in a daze, and no one could figure out what had happened in this place where the sea conditions were excellent, which led to the sinking of the state-of-the-art ship. At this time, someone found a sealed bottle tied under the radio, and when the bottle was opened, there was a note inside, which was written in twenty-one handwriting:

Tom Yishui: On March 21, I bought a table lamp in the Port of Auckland to use as a lamp for my wife's letters.

Second Officer Thurman: I saw Tom returning to the ship with the lamp and said, "This little lamp has a light base, don't let it fall down when the boat rocks," but he didn't interfere.

3rd Mate Patti: On the afternoon of March 21, when the boat left port, I noticed that there was a problem with the life raft applicator, so I tied the life raft to the shelf.

Ershui Davis: When he left his post for inspection, he found that the door closer in the sailor's area was damaged, and the door was tied with wire.

Andriol 2nd Engineer: When I checked the fire fighting facilities, I found that the fire hydrants in the sailor's area were rusted, and I thought that I would be at the dock in a few days, and I would change it when the time came.

Captain Matt: When we set sail, we were busy with work and didn't look at the safety inspection reports of the deck and engine departments.

Daniel the Mechanic: On the morning of March 23rd, the fire probe in Tom and Souler's room gave a continuous alarm. When Walter and I went in, we found no flames, so we decided that the probe had been a false alarm, and dismantled it and handed it to Whitman, asking for a new one.

A typical example of failure without attention to detail: Small mistakes are not mistakes?

Walter the Pilot: I'm Walter.

Whitman: I said I'm busy, I'll give it to you later.

Waiter Scony: I went to Tom's room at 1 p.m. on March 23 to look for him, he was not there, sat for a while, and turned on his lamp.

First Officer Kemp: At 1:30 p.m. on March 23, I took Souler and Robert on a security patrol, and I didn't go into Tom and Souler's room, and said, "Go in your room and see for yourself."

Izuzule: I smiled and didn't go into the room, following Kemp.

Ichisui Robert: I didn't go into the room either, I followed Sule.

Chief of Electrical and Mechanical Cohen: At 2 p.m. on March 23, I found out that it had tripped. Because this is a phenomenon that has occurred before, I didn't think much about it, so I closed the gate without finding out the cause.

Third Engineer Wheel Ma Xin: When I smell bad air, I first call the ** to the kitchen, and after proving that there is no problem, I let the cabin open the ventilation valve.

Chef Shi Ruo: When I picked up Ma Xin**, I joked, what is the problem with us here? You're not going to cook for us? Then he asked Ursula, "Are we all safe here?" ”

Second Chef Ursula: I also felt bad air, but I thought we were safe here, so I continued to cook.

Nubo the Mechanic: When I got Marcin**, I opened the vent valve.

Steward Dai Simon: At 2:30 p.m., I summoned all the people who were not at work to the kitchen to help with the cooking, and we had dinner in the evening.

Doctor Miles: I didn't make rounds.

The devil is in the details.

One horse lost the company! This is the story that takes place in England Charles III. Charlie prepares to fight Richmond to the death, and Charlie asks a man to nail his horse to the horse, and when the blacksmith gets the fourth palm, he is still two nails away from the fourth, so he secretly perfunctory.

Soon, Charles and the other party exchanged fire, and suddenly a horseshoe fell during the battle, and the king was thrown to the ground by the warhorse, and Henry captured Charlie. So there are "two iron nails missing, a horseshoe lost, a horseshoe lost, a war horse lost, a war horse lost, a battle lost, a battle lost, a country lost." ".

1% mistakes led to 100% defeat, and a huge dynasty was ruined.

In the 50s of the 20th century, a country decided to organize a military exercise. As soon as the plane left the ground, it shook violently and fell headlong onto the runway. With a loud bang, people were greeted by billowing smoke and shattered wreckage.

What caused the plane crash? It turned out to be a button on the pilot's clothes, and at the moment the plane took off, a button on the pilot's clothes fell into the instrument, and the instrument could not operate normally, affecting the operation of other parts, and finally led to the destruction of the plane and the death of people.

1.Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, did not pay attention to the details, did not assess the situation at that time, and decisively let the tiger return to the mountain (Liu Bang), which led to the tragedy of the final overlord Farewell Concubine. Wujiang's historical regret of self-slaughter.

2.Zhuge Liang in the Battle of Chibi borrowed the east wind, and Zhou Yu did not pay attention to the changes in the solar terms of daily life. "There is no southeast wind in winter".

On April 23, 1967, Soviet cosmonaut Vladimir Komarov's Soyuz-1 spacecraft crashed into the ground at a very high speed due to a parachute failure to open on the way back. The failure lies in ignoring the decimal point when checking on the ground.

Examples of details that determine success or failure are: small losses on the bus, King Qin Hui catching cattle, fishermen touching fish, taking grain from urns, and picking up copper plates.

1. On the bus, a man casually threw a cigarette butt out of the window, and half a month later, he lost his job. It turned out that the factory where he worked went bankrupt because a cigarette butt fell into the collar of a taxi driver, and in the car was sitting the engineer in charge of the factory's fire protection facilities.

Philosophical implications: Doing something wrong inadvertently often causes huge losses.

2. King Qin Hui wanted to crusade against Shu, but the mountain road to Shu was very steep. So the Qin army carved and chiseled the stone ox and put many valuable items behind the stone ox and sent them to the Shu State. The greedy king of Shu split the mountain road and filled the valley to meet the stone ox. In this way, the kingdom of Shu perished.

Philosophical enlightenment: human desires are always endless, do not only seek the immediate and ignore the long-term interests.

3. One day, a fisherman went fishing with his son. I didn't expect the fishhook to hook the stump of the tree that was not in the water. So he told his son to let his wife quarrel with the neighbors, so that everyone would not have time to come here to fight him for fish, but when the boy was gone, he could not pull the hook, so he jumped into the water to touch the fish, and he hit the stump of the tree and knocked his eyes blind.

Philosophical enlightenment: The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and if there is no end to greed, it will eventually destroy itself.

4. A man stored grain in an urn, and a camel stole the grain in the urn, but his head was stuck. It was suggested that grain could be obtained by cutting off the camel's head, and the man cut off the camel's head with a knife, but he still needed to break the urn to get the grain.

Philosophical enlightenment: everything should be seriously thought and studied carefully, and we should not blindly obey others.

5. There is a person who is very stingy, one day, he picked up ten copper plates, but he didn't expect to drop one when he came home at night. So he spent the other nine copper plates in his hand to buy candles, and lit the candles on the way home and searched repeatedly, but he still did not find the copper plates, and the candles burned out.

Philosophical enlightenment: learn to be improvised, and know how to give up when appropriate.

Every detail you find will be a foreshadowing for your future success; Every attention to detail will give you a little more hope of success. Whenever you put your heart into discovering them, you will be pleasantly surprised. "It is not simple to do every simple thing well, and it is extraordinary to do every ordinary thing well."

As a financial staff member of the Tanghe Reservoir, the work he is engaged in is a very ordinary and ordinary thing, but it is not easy to achieve the recognition of the leaders and the satisfaction of the masses. Because finance is an integrated business unit, it is engaged in the economic accounting of the whole company.

Those things that seem ordinary, but very important. The success or failure of a thing, often some inconspicuous little things will have a great impact on the final result. Details often determine success or failure, and if you want to succeed, then you must pay attention to details.

Small things make big things, and details make perfect. According to Ransom, the detailed description should not be repeated, not even "paraphrased", and what can be relayed can only be logical things, theoretical things. In our work, if we pay attention to the details, we can grasp the source of innovation, which will lay a certain foundation for success.

Single-mindedly longing for greatness and pursuing greatness, but greatness is nowhere to be found; Be willing to talk evenly, do every detail carefully, great but unexpected. That's the beauty of the details, the surprise that comes naturally.

Small things often play a big role, a small detail that can lead you to your destination, or it can make you suffer from failure. Everything is made up of countless small details, each of which is important. It's like an iron chain, there are countless iron rings, each of which is important, and if any part of it is broken, the whole one is useless.

The devil is in the details, and some people are right. Newton, the great physicist, if Newton had not discovered gravity, would the standard of living of mankind be so high? When the apple fell on his head, Newton could have discovered that gravity had become the physicist of mankind without careful consideration.

The Battle of Chibi, Farewell My Concubine. are all living examples. Since ancient times, many such tragedies have occurred, and in life and work, the details determine success or failure.

Details are the standard for everything that succeeds. These things need to be measured in detail, in observation, in careful thinking. Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself.

Be ready for any challenge.

Yuan Shao did not pay attention to talents, such as Xu You, which finally led to Xu You's defection to Cao Cao, the Wuchao grain and grass were burned, and the battle of Guandu failed.

See the small and talk about the integrity.

According to the book "Yuquanzi", when Lu Yuanying stayed in the eastern capital, there was a priest who often accompanied him to play chess. Once, when the two were playing against each other, an official document suddenly came, and Lu Yuanying had to leave the chessboard to go to the public case to review the official document, and the chess friend took the opportunity to secretly move a chess piece, and finally won against Lu Yuanying. In fact, Lu Yuanying had already seen that he had moved the chess pieces, but he didn't say anything.

The next day, Lu Yuanying asked the chess friend to go elsewhere to make a living. No one else understands why he was fired, and he himself doesn't understand why he was fired. Before leaving, Lu Yuanying also gave money and goods.

The reason why Lu Yuanying wanted to dismiss this chess player was because he discovered his dishonesty from this chess friend moving a chess piece and engaging in a small act of blackmail. Honest people are sincere and trustworthy. Honesty is an intangible asset of life and an important part of ideology and morality.

People cannot stand without trust", and it is impossible for people who are not honest to be good people, and it is difficult to live in the world. It is very dangerous and terrible to associate with people who are not honest.

Moving a chess piece, seemingly a trivial matter, does not seem to be worth taking seriously. But the little things are not small, and the small can see the big. Honesty is a virtue and a valuable kindness; Dishonesty is a kind of evil virtue, and the root cause of countless misfortunes and disasters in the world is not bred and caused by evil virtue.

There is no insurmountable gap between small and large.
