Right from school days we see different genre of kids, but the ones which are taken for granted are disciplined ones who meticulously work through each assignment, study each chapter, complete homework and records on time every-time, and eventually get good grades at all levels. In contrast there is another genre who do not do any one of the above but either ride on talent or sheer luck and get similar grades. While first kind of kids are taken for granted, the second category are treated
like super stars. Argument againt the disciplined folks we hear is 'if we study every day, finish all assignments anyone can can get good grades'. But the point arguer misses out was its not easy to inculcate that discipline.
I will argue the disciplined folks deserve more respect than they get. First and foremost advantage they bring to the table are they are predictable. Its a lovely trait and are usually easy to deal with as you know what to expect. Second trait is they are good at flawless execution of tasks assigned to them without having to chase them on the outcome. It may be my perception but I have observed them to be more knowledgeable and matured, which is an outcome of their methodical execution of
work. How ever knowledge levels vary from one individual to other constrained by their appetite.
Most importantly, its really difficult to replicate the feats they perform with ease. I know folks in workplace who start their work at 9:30 am sharp day after day. I know a certain person who wear formal clothes to workplace last 13 years without exception. I know folks who meticulous finish task tracking each day and have all the needed numbers at finger tips when ever I need them. (Its a shame some of us ride on them and look good to bosses) I know folks who finish stipulated mandatory training or never miss status reports with out having to remind them. All these folks are ones who deserve more respect than we give them.
