Thinking Strategically


Spend time thinking life through. I have discovered that thinking with strategy in mind has become a lost art.

We will be surprised how much better our lives can become with just a little strategic thinking.

Strategic thinking entails seeing life in a way that is clear and concise (one thought at a time). This kind of thinking can be cumbersome. If you are anything like me then you are impulsive and impatient. With this kind of personality one that wears impulsivity as a badge then strategic thinking can be a great benefit to you.

However, the just do mentality has got me in trouble often. I have come to appreciate strategic thinking.

One way I use strategic thinking is to use a concept called mind mapping. I love to mind map.

Mind Mapping to figure out my thoughts.

Mind mapping gives us the ability to dump on paper our thoughts and give then organization at the same time. This is strategic thinking!

When we think strategically it helps us to become more mindful of our duties and responsibilities. Strategic thinking also helps us rid our minds of the clutter, unwanted thoughts and time wasters that only comes to slow us down.

In this post I will be dealing with only one thought technique in this post. Okay here it is…thought technique #1.

  1. Make yourself think not react to thoughts.

This principle is easier said then done. Thinking must be an intentional part of our lives. This is something that I have not mastered but constantly work at.

Our minds naturally wants to save the world, go shopping, make millions and find happiness and excitement all at once.

This approach to thinking sounds good but sorry this is not reality. My wife tells me all the time, “Mike you can’t do everything.” And you know what she is right!

This is exactly why we must make ourselves think on purpose. We must choose a direction, vision, goal or purpose we want to flush out and go with it.

We must make ourselves think strategically. This type of thinking is learned, practiced and learned some more.

Well, I am going to stop here. I have been making my post shorter on purpose because I think it’s better that way.๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
