How To Level Up Your Life (using SWOT analysis)

Opportunities: External factors that could support you in achieving your desired goals. For example, free online courses and social media.

Threats: Personally, I believe that they can be both internal and external factors that hinder you from reaching your desired outcome. These could include lack of self-confidence, economic issues, and social media (where you get to choose how it is used).

Although external factors usually play quite a significant role in what we achieve or don't, please don't let that affect your happiness.

Step 1: Get your grid

Get a SWOT Analysis grid and write in detail your strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. You could either make one or print one out from the free templates online.

Step 2: Your future self 👩‍🎓

What do they do that you fail to do and what do you do that they wouldn't be doing ideally? Make sure to write your thoughts down.

Step 3: The Plan 📓

• Set simple goals about how you'll use your strengths to move you closer to your dream reality
• Write a plan on how you're going to get rid of or improve your weaknesses
• Note how you'll take advantage of the opportunities before you
• How are you going to mitigate your threats?

Step 4: Take Action 🎬

No matter how long your list of improvements to make is, choose the three that are most important to you and will make the biggest difference in your life. After choosing those, focus on one at a time.

It's completely normal if you feel the need to work on all of them. However, try to resist the urge and focus on a maximum of three.
