Strategic and Tactical. You know the difference, right?<\/p>\n

Strategic is thoughtful, it\u2019s high level, it\u2019s directed, intentional, and it\u2019s what helps you pursue what you want.<\/p>\n

Tactical is practical, it\u2019s action steps, boots on the ground, and it\u2019s how you get you want.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re pretty much clear on this difference, yet sometimes it\u2019s easy to find ourselves lost in the complexity, buried in projects, stressed out and wondering (not out loud, of course) \u201cwhat do I do next?\u201d or \u201cwhere am I, and what am I doing with this [business\/career\/job]?\u201d or burned out and not sure why.<\/p>\n

Know What you Want and Need<\/h2>\n

When you find yourself lost in this or some similar morass, ask yourself, \u201cAm I driving my business? Or is my business driving me?\u201d<\/p>\n

If it\u2019s the latter, know you are in good company. This is quite common for ambitious, high-achievers who\u2019re action-oriented, exposed to a lot of opportunities, surrounded by other high-achievers, and often riding on momentum.<\/p>\n

So, how did you get here?<\/p>\n
