I will note that it's not merely doing things to completion. It's doing the right things, the things you ought to be doing.

Not sure about it being a virtue, but not doing one's due diligence can lead to undesirable consequences, to be sure. "Due diligence" is often used by me and others to refer to personal responsibility, such as researching an investment before investing (looking before leaping). But this presentation of the term is also valid and in a way a more general application. Whether we are pursuing an interest, applying our efforts to achieving an assigned task, fulfilling our duties on a job, or even in a state of rest, we will get out of it the effort we put into it.
