Elaboration on something mentioned in 7 Pillars of Strategic Thinking video

[rd5555]

@Leo Gura I was hoping you could elaborate on something.

In the 7 Pillars of strategic thinking video, pillar 4 is concentration of force: hitting the enemy where they're weakest, find our own weak spots, find the areas where we have the most leverage.

 

Question: Does finding our 'weak spots' mean targeting the areas that are going to make the biggest difference in our lives?
For example, building a business and leaving a full time job is something that will make the biggest difference in my life.

 

Question 2: Or does finding our 'weak spots' mean targeting the areas where we're weakest?

Question 3: Or does finding out 'weak spots' mean targeting the areas where it's easiest for us to generate results relative to the work put in, like high-leverage activities

 

The reason I wanted to check this is because, all these areas that make the biggest difference in our lives like building a business etc, are typically the areas where the enemy (our own mind) is strongest rather than weakest?
e.g more resistance, limiting beliefs, and these are typically the areas that require more discipline and work ethic etc?

 

thank you

i think 'weak spots' means compulsive, destructive behavior caused by fear 
therefore weak spots = fear

@nhoktinvt thank you for the reply i appreciate it.

 

So if someone had a few weaknesses, let's say their biggest weakness was that they were addicted to heroin, and then they had a minor addiciton to gambling, and they also had a slight problem with splurging all their money.

 

In this sense, their weakest spot would be the thing that creates the most destructive behaviour and that makes them the most psychologically weak, in this example it would be their heroin addiction. That would be where they concentrate all their forces, to remove that first?

Even though it might be the most challenging to remove, they attack that first because that's the thing that makes their mind the most weak?

your weak spot is the thing that is exposed when you go outside and speak to a stranger or you when you driving if your driving skill is weak or the sky suddenly rains then you're vulnerable to getting in an accident or when you join a discord server u feel me ?
