Discuss the importance of pride in ones work

Taking pride in one’s work tells a lot about a person’s character. It shows that one has the drive to complete a task and do it to the best of their ability. However, many people in today’s society do not realize how important having pride in one’s work is.  Being able to say that you completed something with all your effort tells others that you are dedicated and have respect for yourself. Many naturally talented people get work done just to get praise and acknowledgment from others, but when a person finishes a task for them-even though they may not be as talented as the other, it shows that they have integrity, because it may not be acknowledged.  Yet, all of that would not matter if you don’t get praise because you did it for you. In the real world, people may survive by only doing minimal work, but they will not get far. It is important to take pride in one’s work because it will force your mental self to take the extra step and have initiative in whatever life “throws” your way.
