Importance Of Following Orders In The Military

Following orders is important in many views of life, not just a career. If someone does not follow orders, many times the entire team will fail because of that one error. Furthermore, lying to protect yourself from being the blame of the fail can affect your career in the long run. A career is not just something you do every day to get by, but it is something you do because you enjoy doing it. To be honest is to be free of deceit and untrustworthiness.

You can be brutally honest about anything you don’t usually “ beat around the bush “ on problems you’re usually on top of the problem and solving it then and there or usually look up ways to help solve it with others.
