SWOT analysis is a management term used as acronym of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats. It is basically a planning & execution instrument, very commonly and regularly used by companies and organisations for various purposes.
Most people use such methodology in business but not for self. An individual SWOT analysis is very important for anyone and everyone who is willing to change and take his or her life to the next level.
It's true that you can't achieve a goal which isn't set yet. Similarly, it is also true that most people fail to achieve their set goals repeatedly. How many times have you missed your 'weight loss' target? How many times have you postponed buying a new car or bike? Since how long have you been waiting to go on a dream holiday? The list may go on, which shows how often one fails in achieving set goals.
A 'self-swot' analysis can be a great help in your road to success. An analysis of self will help you the manner below.
S : A strength can be skills possessed, qualification, resources, connections, facilities etc.
W : It can be a skill or qualification or also can be money or scarcity of resources.
O : When there is a weakness, there is an opportunity to improve. Find and start working upon.
T : Threats can be things like competition from colleagues, other industry players, new technology.
Above explanation is intentionally kept very brief so that it can spark your mind but also not cage it categorically. These factors can be internal or external, but mostly interconnected. You should brainstorm as much as possible to get a clear picture.
This exercise will help you most if the the goals are clearly set, because when the destination is defined, making a road map is easier. You will be very happy to find out all your strengths, many of which will also surprise you. That will also give you a positive feeling. For all your weaknesses, you will have the opportunity to improve and create a better self. Finding and assessing the threats will make you more aware and alert about your current situation, which will motivate you to move faster and smarter.
So, don't wait for someone else to come and tell you about your strong points and weaker points. Do it yourself today with open mind and complete dedication. Victory awaits you.
