STRATEGIES

Concepts, tactics, utilized historically
In many categories of human endeavor
Currently prominent in business plans,
Military and space applications, diplomacy,
Medical treatment, computer and network
Practices, major sport, government, politics,
Educational concepts, in short virtually in all
Professional, technical and financial fields.

A strategy may also be helpful
In one’s difficult personal life
Especially in times of crisis
Brought about by extenuating
Circumstance such as income,
Medical or family situations,
Disappointments or denials
Or a combination of factors.

The suddenness of such onslaughts
Cause disorientation, stress, panic
To one’s emotional well being which
May have negative health results,
Complicating one’s logical thinking
Thereby increasing the complexity
Of the overall problem, thus further
Delaying an acceptable solution.

One very helpful tactic
May be to map out a
Personal strategy
Very carefully planned
With a clear goal in mind,
Adhere tenaciously to it
Be determined, do not waiver
Carry your goal to its achievable fruition.
