Following instructions is probably the most fundamental skill an individual needs in everyday's activities. For example; if a student cannot follow a lecturer's instruction to do even the simplest task, not much is going to be done.
For me its actually not hard to follow instructions. Considering that I grew in a family that's embedded with African culture and traditions whereby you were given instructions on daily basis and expected to follow them without considering possible outcomes. It was all about following what the elders have commanded.
However, its always difficult to follow instructions if you didn't understand what is said, what is expected from you and sometimes what the end results should be. As human beings we find it difficult to follow instructions because we tend not to effectively listen or read all written instructions patiently and carefully. which is insane indeed.....Some instructions can be easy to follow but when you really have no idea or picture on that specific thing then you can never do the thing the right way.
Moreover, in nature, what is born of human flesh is bound to make mistakes which clearly state that no matter how much we follow instructions we are also bound to make mistakes. There is an English saying which says "even the genius never get things right the first time."
