Put it into action
While a good strategy is important to get started, a strategy by itself won’t get you anywhere. You need both strategies “the intent” and tactics “putting that intent to action.”
- Break down your strategy into the specific things you need to do.
- Plan what day of the week, and what specific time of the day you are actually going to give life to your strategy. To make sure you don’t let things slip by, or fail to grab the right opportunities, plan these activities on your calendar.
- Don’t let lack of time or other excuses be the reason for inaction. Plan your time to make things happen.
