According to aresearcher (Hensley, 2010) on this topic, when someone works alone, he will be nervous, even just a little. While he is being nervous, he will rush in doing his work. His rushaffects him to do carelessly. By this simple way, loneliness will influence people doing his work carelessly.

            Beside loneliness becomes the major cause, there are some factors which can lead loneliness become carelessness. The factors can be divided into two parts. They are internal factors and external factors. Based on Chris Conway’s statement, mind/feeling is the most influential factor that brings more carelessness when you are getting alone. Working alone makes some people think that; there is no one around them, no one is able to discuss with, and no one gives some corrections for their work. Those all reasons which some people think make them worry about. Not only worry, but what is in their head also influences them to be nervous.

Not only what in around us are able to influenceus to do carelessness, but condition is also influential. Let’s imagine, when you are in your room in order to finish your work, and there is no one accompanying you except your laptop. In that condition, you have to finish your work immediately, but you feel very bored, and you decide to take some refreshments by playing game in your laptop. By gaming, you can refresh your mind, but it can make you forget your work. So, what will happen if you forget your work? Because the work has to be finished immediately, you will rush in doing your work, and because of your rush, it may make you finish your work carelessly.

            Chris Conway said “controlling self is the best way to minimize carelessness when working alone”. Controlling self means ability to control all aspects of our bodies. Keeping mind in positive thinking, whether there are internal or external factors which are bothering you.When you first realize that you are in that situation stop and regain your composure. Control your worries. Recognize aspects that bother your mind. Relax and think; don't make any hasty judgments. Observe the resources around you. Analyze your situation and plan a course of action only after considering all of the aspects of your predicament. Be sure to keep cool and collected. It is important to make the right decision at all times. Set your goal of work and always keep it fresh in your mind. Never give up. Prepare for the worst but hope for the best.
