BEAUTIFUL MONDAY MORNING, DETERMINE YOUR STRENGTH AND HAVE AN EDGE

Beautiful morning Steemians,

Do you think SWOT analysis started with #STRENGTHS(S), before progressing to WEAKNESSES(W), OPPORTUNITIES(O) and THREATS (T) for no reason? If you've ever considered this and you think it's just a mere coincidence, then you are wrong. There are reasons for it and they are not farfetched. Through my research about the concept SWOT, I realised that each of the words that form the acronym are not just arranged to give a readable or sensible coined word. There are reasons for arranging them in that manner.

Whatever you will be analysing using SWOT must follow the progression for a laudable conclusion to be made. The progression is from the S to the W to the O and to the T. A careful elucidation of each terms makes a decision commendable.
You can't afford to start analysing whatsoever you want to do starting with the #threats, you won't start, not to talk of stopping halfway.
You cannot afford to start analysing whatsoever you want to do starting with #opportunities, you will be hallucinated by the dividends which will ultimately be the propellant not giving room for adequate consideration of the risk involved. Nothing comes easy, life is not a bed of roses. Rest they say it's sweet but it never comes before labour. Profit they say is the reward of capital but never comes before risk.
You cannot start whatsoever you want to analyse with #weaknesses, you will believe you are constrained by your ability, you will believe you are incapacitated, you will believe you have limited resources, you will believe others around you are ways ahead and this will impede, debar and ultimately kill your dream.
Starting analysing with any of the other three keynotes apart from STRENGTH is not healthy in decision making. Start with #strength and you are in for a memorable and life changing act.

HOW DO I KNOW MY STRENGTH?
Analysis of strengths is an prominent part of life matters analysis, mainly because it gives room for better decision making, planning, and management. When you know what you do well, you will be able to make optimum yield out of most of it, and consequently, receive the ultimate benefit.
Strength basically means the beneficial quality or attribute a man possess that makes him fit for a task. There is no man born without an ability but individual's approach to the ability's discovery set us apart. A man should grow daily to discover his talent, ability, capacity and strength. Discovery of this is the first in strength analysis.
Don't deceive yourself, don't assume you are capable of doing something when in the real sense, you are handicapped, self deceit is dangerous. Believe that we are all blessed but differently and know your own area of blessing. To know this is not difficult, it's an attraction, an affection, and an easy clinging passion. You must sincerely answer the following questions without compromise

• what can I do?
• how are my abilities relevant to the task?
• can I manipulate my abilities to suit the demand of the task?
• are my abilities capable of outwitting others I'm competing with?
• won't I get tired after doing the same thing for a certain period of time?
• won't I get exhausted and run out of ideas?
  Answers to the above questions will give you the knowledge of how strong you are for a specific task and will let you know if you are good for it. Don't do things with mediocrity, analyse your strengths and be passionate to explore them.
