The importance of strategic thinking

Every student has to be knowledgeable about strategic thinking in order to learn effectively and succeed in life.

What is success?

According to Prof PJ Meyer, of Harvard University in the United States of America, strategic thinking is about formulating a plan that will deliver expected results to address one’s expectations in life.

Life requires all of us to acquire the following:

• S – skills

• K – knowledge

• A – attitude

• A – abilities

• A – achievements

• A – actions

• V – values

• B – brilliance

• S – superior success

To survive this world, a student needs to take action to learn the following methods, that will guarantee success in life.

The above state acronym is the basis for waking up the conqueror in every student.

Is is incumbent upon every student to work upon it daily, in order to succeed in education in life.

The lack of knowledge, skills, values and actions contribute to the following:

• poverty

• unemployment

• sorrow in life, such as regrets

• ignorance

• frustrations

• hopelessness

• poor decisions in life

Knowledge is power in life every day.

Every one has to avoid the above self-punishment results.

S.R.D.P.

• S – self-esteem is to feel good about yourself

• R – reconstruction and development programme

• D – dynamic improvements in life through education

• P – follow procedures that will determine achievement of success

According to Meyer, success is the realisation of pre-determinted, worthwhile personal goals, with a return on investment.

Every student needs to focus on their personal goals and to set goals in life that will make you happy.

Self-inspiration is the pillar of success in life, for a better and fruitful standard of living.

Many people are captured by laziness, fear, doubt and poor decisions in what to do to achieve success in life.

Avoid being the victim of ignorance and failure in your precious life.

Those who take actions and follow a daily strategic plan organise effectively.

Trust and believe in your determination, desires and drives, and delivery of the success that you want to see in your life, in Jesus’s name.

This is a formula to galvanise your determinations, to drive your actions and your energy to make it happen, rather than wondering how others make it happen in life.

Please answer the following questions:

• What is my aim in life?

• What is my vision in life?

• What is my mission in life?

•What are my desires?

• What is my plan of action?

• What is my self-development plan?

• What is my time management plan?

• What is my self-evaluation plan?

• What are my innovations in life?

Answering the above questions is a wake-up call to drive your success and feel good as an erudite student.

Remember, we are all students to make it happen in life.
