Visionaries sometime overlook the challenges.
Strategists face the problems head on.

Steve Jobs of Apple is a visionary.
Bill Gates of Microsoft is a strategist.

It is easy to get caught up on vision and overlook the work that must be done to get there. It is just as easy to get caught up on strategy and forget the guiding vision. As we strive to change the world by changing ourselves, it is important to balance both strategy and vision.

Live purposefully!
