Spend the time to check off all parts against the parts 
list.  Ensures all is there and aquaints you with many similar 
looking screws (so you don't use the wrong ones).  I bought a large 
Plano plastic parts box (like a fishing tackle box) with many 
dividers to place the sorted parts.  Some items it is best not to 
remove from packaging until you install them.

Also take your time and enjoy the process of building.  Rushing 
usually leads to mistakes.  Likewise do not shortcut the 
instructions.  They were written to help you avoid mistakes!  Use 
pencil to check each off as you work (I also check parts shown in 
diagrams as they are installed).  Often the shows up an error before 
I go too far.
