The well lived life is a life with a strategy, and good living, like a good business, has as much a strategic component, as a management and tactical component.

A good tactician worries about:

• Getting the every day job done
• Overcoming obstacles and learning new details about an operation
• Loves the method and the doing as much as the end-result

A good manager on the other hand ensures:

• Completion of tasks on time
• The Maintenance of good records
• Efficient co-existence of multiple tasks and their smooth operation

The strategist on the other hand, takes care of the big picture. Are we

• Moving in the right direction
• Delivering desirable services?
• Utilizing opportunities to provide superior marketing and sales?

In our own lives, we spend far too much time being the tactician and the manager. In fact, 90% of our lives are spent being the tactician, simply getting done with the day's work, and the remaining 10% is spent being the manager- organizing activities around the every day chores.

If this is true in your life, then step back and become a master strategist of your own life.

• Is your life going in the direction you want it to?
• Are your activities delivering what you want from it (fulfillment, satisfaction, prosperity)?

• Are there opportunities that you are leaving unexplored owing to excess time and effort devoted to your tactical self?

Pay some attention to your strategic self, or the entrepreneurial self if you will, and you will find a fount of energy within you, ready to take you to greater heights immediately!
