Strategy
Strategy is a well-thought-out way of achieving a goal by selecting priorities, resources, sequence of actions and decision criteria.
Definition
A strategy differs from a task list in that it organizes choices and resignations. A good strategy answers the questions: where are we going, why, with what resources, what are we not doing and how will we know progress. In your personal life, strategy helps you reduce chaos and act in accordance with your values, not just the pressure of the moment.
Practice and life
Next to your goal, write down: your main direction, three priorities, three things you're not doing, and one progress indicator.
Common misconceptions
It is a mistake to confuse strategy with a motivating slogan. A strategy without selection criteria and without resignation is also a mistake.
> Strategy is the choice of a path, but also the conscious resignation from many other paths.
