Introduction:

Good people still fail to reach their goals after decades of living a "good life". This is an example of how good intentions alone do not guarantee good results. So what turns good intentions into the life you desire in reality? There is one element that is repeated throughout history in those who managed to turn their desires into reality.

What is a strategy

With that said, let's discover this crucial element and why it will be a game changer for you! 👊

1. What is strategy?

A strategy is a plan to reach a specific goal.

A plan is detailed proposal for doing something.

A goal is a desired result.

A desire is a strong feeling of wanting something.

2. Why do you need to implement strategy in your daily life?

A goal alone is a desire to achieve something, but if you just wait for the goal to materialize without taking action you are showing a lack of accountability. You are responsible for your own success. Daily life is filled with a number of small goals throughout the day. From waking up on time, to taking out the garbage, to having a successful workday. Leaving the result of your goals up to chance, is also a lack of accountability for your own success. Does it make sense to complain that the trash is overflowing when you are the person responsible for taking it out to the curb to be picked up on time each week?

3. What now?

Now that you know what strategy is and how important it is to the success in your daily life, you can implement strategies daily. Remember that a strategy is a plan to reach a specific goal. So having a goal alone will get you nowhere. Now you must decide on a plan to complete the goals and then execute that plan until your desired goal is reached.
