Have you ever heard someone being described as conscientious? Conscientiousness is a skill or quality.Experts have found that conscientious people are more likely to do well in their work and have good relationships with others.31. Know what consclentious means. Being conscientious means wanting to do your work or duty well.You try your best and don't give up when things get hard.You also do tasks without being asked.32. For example,a conscientious person follows rules,does homework early and carefully,stays with difficult tasks,and helps others without being told. 33. Sticking to tasks when they get hard is a key part of being conscientious.Child expert Laura Gwilt says,"Sticking with things doesn't mean working non-stop.It means finding ways to keep moving forward,even one small step at a time."When things get hard,try not to stop.Gwilt adds, "When you continue instead of giving up,you show yourself that effort matters as much as the result.Mistakes are a normal part of learning.Each time you finish something challenging,you feel proud,and that builds confidence." Make plans and keep them. Another step to be more conscientious is to keep your plans.If you plan to go to a new club or do your homework after school,make it happen.34. Following through shows others that they can trust and depend on you-important skills as you grow up. A.That is why it is a very important quality to develop B.Stick with tasks when they get hard. C.There are many clear behaviors(of a conscientious person D.It means you will keep your promise and finish what you start.
