Use details to fuel mission or purpose of the essay can never be overemphasized. Writers use details to communicate effectively with readers. This helps writers creatively use language and adopt other skills of writing like use of similes to compare concepts to effectively communicate with readers. Use of details also makes essays appealing to the reader and is a way of motivating the reader to continue reading the essay.
Anastasia Toufexis, in her essay, “Love: The Right Chemistry” page 136 of the study book used in class, adopts diagrams to elaborate her subject. This is an instance where details have been used to communicate with the reader. The diagram backs up the details in the essay about how people develop a feeling of love. The main point in the essay is that a feeling of love originates from hormones produced by various parts of the brain to ensure that couples can stay together to conceive and keep their young ones.
The historical detail in the same essay where anthropologists studied feeling of love in African plains informs the reader that she wrote the essay after doing a comprehensive research on the subject.
Through out the essay, Anastasia gives the reader both a biological and social perspective to her subject. This gives the topic a broader view making her essay acceptable by people from all backgrounds.
In organizations, non profit institutions like orphanages would seek to keep as many homeless children in the home as possible and they could achieve this by seeking for donations and aid. The organization leadership should therefore give details to fuel inspiration among employees so that employees’ engagements within the organization are in line with the mission or purpose of the organization.
Use of details to fuel mission or purpose is not limited to organizations but also to personal statements. By using details in personal statements, individuals demonstrate understanding of their vision and how much they are willing to go to achieve their vision.
Personal mission statements are different from mission statements because they relate to an individual and not an organization. Personal statements are also as many as there are different people. The differences originate in different personalities and aims different people have in life.
Specific features of a personal statement could include career objectives, interests in education, and expectations in life, dreams and visions. Normally, personal statements are simple and clear and demonstrate an individual’s aim in life. However, when they are put on an application letter, curriculum vitae or resume, they should show relevance with the organization or college they are being sent to. This makes drafters of personal statements to put the reader in mind while writing them.
For example, a student with a mission statement like “Learning in an institution which will sharpen my skills, awareness and enthusiasms and be a learner capable of combining the learning process and having fun at the same time.” A personal statement like this will be relevant to a college that combines extra curricular activities in the overall objective. The drafter of such a personal statement can further change it to suit objective of another institution with a different mission.
In conclusion, use of details is important because it helps managers to inspire workers towards achieving organization goals. To individuals, use of details demonstrates a person’s dreams, vision, values and objectives.
