read the instructions

Sometimes I forget to follow the instructions. I am pretty good at it usually. I had one to many Psychology class that gave a test at some point that the paragraph of instructions basically came down to turn this test over and write your name on the back and you get an A+. Then I worked for a company giving weekly quizzes to a group of people who were supposed to be detail oriented but didn't read instructions on almost anything. When I tried to give a similar test, those above me said that was micromanaging and we didn't do that but then I had to have all future quizzes approved. Isn't that micromanaging? Anyway, I just had to redo something three times to get all the information that was needed and asked for in the instructions and I wrote the instructions down. I got side tracked by the mini drama that someone else was creating and allowed my focus to be drawn to that instead of what I needed to be doing. I think it is time for a break. Maybe I'll take an early lunch and read something totally off subject just to give my mind a break. No more beating myself up for being human. All is well now. Thanks for listening. Many blessing.
