Strategic thinking is a crucial process that goes hand in hand with strategic planning. It gets you to think outside the box and look at the bigger picture. It moves you to your destination with more ease as it allows you to understand what works and does not work, look at emerging opportunities and barriers, analyze influential factors, get your team engaged, choose the right direction and interventions, and invest resources at the right time.

Often success is defined as the accomplishment of a purpose, the achievement of something desired, or the attainment of popularity and prosperity. To some, it means living their passion, or having a well-paid job, a nice house or other material things.

It is critical for a new business to start its journey towards success by designing an inspired one-year business plan. As a new entrepreneur, you need to define in a start-up business plan what the business is all about, what it has accomplished to date, where it is heading, and how it will reach its destination.
