It is not about your ideas, your smarts, your innovation, your strategy or even your likability. The basis for success on whatever you set out to achieve boils down to one common element; your ability to manage projects.
Everything is a project. Whether it is giving a speech, running an event, building a website, planning a dinner, getting in shape or organizing your sock drawer. Even the simple art of effectively running your next meeting is a project.
Ask any successful person and they will agree. No matter how big or how small the challenge, planning and executing on the basis that everything boils down to manging small projects that role up into bigger ones somehow makes that big audacious goal you've set out (or has been set out for you) manageable.
