How to Think Strategically and Act Tactically

Strategist John M. Hawkins gives his perspective on how to think strategically and act tactically

[@trillionaireman5984]

Very powerful! Very direct! Very concise! And very helpful! Thank you!

[@martinmohammed4087]

In summary of my learning: envision your goals and dreams as the peak of a pyramid (termed as 'A'), supported by strategies ('B') and further by tactical actions ('C'). 'A' embodies your aspirations, 'B' involves the planned steps to reach 'A', and 'C' denotes the current actions in progress. The crucial link lies between 'A' and 'C'. Any misalignment between these can hinder the execution of 'B', implying you might be working towards others' strategies rather than your own goals. Realigning 'A' and 'C' is vital. This resonates with my favorite quote: "Dream during the first hour of the day & spend the rest of the day working towards those dreams." The initial phase encompasses contemplation of 'A' & 'B', while the latter entails the actions denoted by 'C'.

[@lunedeslunes4064]

I realized in the organization which I work the tasks are very overlwhelming that I feel I do not work strategically for myself, or I resolve other’s problems. I like the idea to dream every morning. I will try to do it . Thank you Sir.

[@lhallmbp8914]

Dream for the first hour of the day and work the rest of the day to accomplish those dreams. That is a great way of looking at it!🔥

[@m.c.6933]

BRILLIANT QUOTE! Love the video, thank you!

[@commentator2718]

Wonderful video! Straight to the point. Thank you!!

[@tykho2482]

Hey John ⚡ This is the first video of yours I've see and it was very useful for me. I recently came to realize that strategy and tactics are what my life is missing. Excited to start working through your content. I like the way you communicate. Thanks!

[@anaterresejunio6930]

This video is very helpful. I have been frustrated for so many years because it felt like I haven't accomplished anything that I personally want. In societal standards, I may be seen as successful, but what I have always done is to fulfill other people's strategies. And I feel it more right now with my new role because I do not feel that my project is moving. It seems that I am always back to step 1. My boss is brilliant and kind, but she lingers and overthinks the process. I want to be able to accomplish something. So your video is truly helpful. It's about time that I define my own strategy and work my way to fit in other people's goals with mine.

[@TreboR1966]

Thank you very much for breaking this down in a very visual and simple way.

When a pyramid is drawn on a whiteboard, you know he means business.

[@curtiscarpenter9881]

Strategy needs to be clear as clear as we can set goals.

[@timbmd]

Strategy needs to be realistic and practical to enable action be carried out.

Could I get a couple of examples? "Courses of action" sounds like "My tasks"

[@yuneecphotography2499]

Information is good. Your video is too dark, dark theme, clothes, hair, you begin to fade into the background. Brighten up your background to stand out. Remember, your the main focus of the video.

[@superhuman5857]

What’s the different between tactics and strategies

[@TXP9]

Strategy = thoughts/goals Tactics = actions/results That’s essentially how this guy defines it. It makes sense, but in different contexts, both could be synonymous.

[@snoo333]

Anyone notice the other competing goals / pyramids splitting our time and so the current goal is either completed later than expected or abandoned for another new goal. i would like to hours of lecture on how to works with the other competing for our attention.

[@RockPaperDiceEnter]

Roman’s goal is peace. Tactically, he negotiates with a security team. Strategically, he leads his accomplices. Watch #RockPaperDiceEnter amzn.to/2VbjQMq

[@timbmd]

To those who still do not understand this: here is a simple explanation: Strategy > Tactic + Tactic + Tactic.

[@visibleknight12]

Obviously, since just doing a tactic after another is like doing something over and over for no reason.

[@burakku_ratio5771]

Hi

[@Dden07]

His strategy is not that good he should’ve known the comments are not nice😂

[@AdrianLopez-vs5xr]

Have better things to say okay

[@user-ej2em2vg7n]

He didn’t say anything the whole video. He may as well have just breathed heavily into the mic - and before you rage, quote 1 morsel of substance and time stamp it, explaining how the information is substantial. Change my mind

[@jennenhermosa9641]
