The mindset you need to succeed at every goal
Scoring your strategic mindset
Rate the statements on a scale of 1(never) to 5 (all the time). When you are stuck on something, how often do you ask yourself:
- “What are things I can do to help myself?”
- “Is there a better way of doing this?”
- “How can I do this better?”
- “What are things I can do to make myself better at this?”
- “What can I do to help myself?”
- “What can I do to get better at this?”
The higher you score, the more likely you are to have a strategic mindset.
