Strategy Is About Making Smart Choices

What distinguishes achievers from commonplaces? It is their policy to evolve strategies in life, be obsessed, refuse to conform to set rules, never give up, and last but not the least, believe in themselves.

Dare to Dream

It is about not limiting yourself; instead toiling hard for something which might be ridiculous in the general perception. Whether we talk of Thomas Alva Edison, Henry Ford, Steve Jobs, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, or Kalpana Chawla, they had dreams in their eyes - dreams that they dared to strive for!

Prioritize

What is it that you really want? Is it just your job, your spouse, your kids, or a complete you who aspires to chase his/her ambitions? Decide what all is on your wish list and then prioritize. Put yourself first - only then you can take care of other people and situations around you.

Avoid

Do you despise being stuck in traffic jams? Your health issues are making you irritable? You have no time for yourself? Learn to get over such menaces. How? Look for work closer to your home. Take measures to fix your health problems. Replace hard work with smart work. These are just a few examples. Introspect and find smart solutions.

Smart Choices

Great people are great because they refuse to be average. Realize your hidden potential. Set your targets. Start working to achieve them. Don’t let your dreams fade into oblivion. How? Break down your goal into steps and mark deadlines. Dreaming, prioritizing, avoiding, making plans - it’s all about making smart choices or strategizing!

Even in a Game

To make things clearer, let us talk about rummy. A simple card melding game that Indians of all ages have been playing for decades too involves strategy. Each player gets 13 cards; players pick and drop cards on their turns to realize their goal. A winning hand could look like - 2♦, 3♦, 4♦; 7♠, 8♠, 9♠, 10♠; 4♥, 4♣, 4♠; J♥, J♠, J♦. From the very beginning, you have to make smart choices regarding which cards to pick and which ones to get rid of. Each and every turn is critical, and if you base your choices on logic, you have bright prospects of turning a winner.
