Strategy is the thinking part before the work begins. It tells you what to do, what not to do, and how you will win. It is important because strategy creates work, and work consumes resources. Resources cost money. If your strategy is good, you are spending money on the right things. If not, you are wasting it.
A good strategy should answer two basic questions: what work are you going to do, and how will you measure progress. These two questions give clarity and direction to your daily work.

Understanding p value can be confusing. People who get it have an edge over those who don’t.
To make it easier, don’t focus too much on the p-value because it is not very intuitive. Instead, focus on the confidence level, which is simply 1 - p.
Confidence Level (CL) tells us the probability that the experiment worked or that your idea is successful. If it is higher than 95%, it means there is enough evidence that the experiment worked.

Business writing = clarity + persuasion. Keep it simple.
Short sentences work best. Cut extra words.
For example, “He was very happy” → “He was happy”.
First sentence should grab the attention of the reader. Rewrite until it is perfect.
Brain imagines the object before the action. So write in an active voice.
For example, “The boy hit the ball” is better than “The ball was hit by the boy”.
