Being a Smart Person or Strategic

[deisik]

both of these things, in my opinion, come hand in hand. The one who is smart, usually has a strategy as well. For example, Napoleon Bonaparte, was one of the best known strategician's, but was he smart? Of course he was, just look how he influenced entire France with speeches that inspired a revolt against the government. He had this natural ability, which many would cool smart (and I agree), to convince people and make them do what he wanted to do. So, both are necessary if you want start something great

I have to disagree with your view on Napoleon

I don't know whether he was smart or not, but I don't think that he was one of the greatest strategists. Had he really been, he wouldn't have ended like he did, in captivity and isolation on the island of Saint Helena. Nevertheless, you raise an interesting topic of how the ego can interfere with one's ability to stick to their strategy (which seemed to have massively plagued Napoleon). In other words, just being smart and strategic is not enough. You should also keep your ego bridled at all times

What does being smart means? One can be smart and he can act very strategic, but if the luck is not with him and he's not luck, he can't do anything on crypto market. You should be luck first.

And then you should be able to investigate the market opportunities without getting bored.

I don't think luck is on first place. Being lucky is just additional positive factor in some job or business. About smart-strategic question. I think both is necessary. If you are strategic, that mean you are smart. If I need to separate those two, definitely strategy is in first place.

Is it enough to be smart with just nothing to lean on and go on with your life? Because i feel that there are a lot of people who doesn't know how to handle their money with regards to see in the future. Is it enough to be smart and not be strategical or somewhat a person who has a lot of experience. Who would you choose?

For me it is required to be a master of both things like of course you can not have experience if you are not going to try and some people would think it's a waste of their time if they are doing what they know already like repeating their work over and over again. So it should be in a balance.

I think it is a very simple question, and we all know that it is good to have a knowledge because being a smart person is quite good and being a strategic attitude is under being smart. If you are very smart person you can think and of course plan different strategy. So I think it is good to be a smart person than strategic.

Actually I am confused by the term "strategic" because there is always an element of "smart" in it, if without ingenuity it can be likened to "cunning" for trying to take chances of every opportunity, people like this use every way to achieve their goals I am more familiar with the combination both because it will always sync with full of common sense.

[jonatuzc]

Being strategic means that you are smart enough to think of different tactics so i dont think they are different. There is just a level of being smart and theres lot of area of expertise from living their life to knowing theories.

Yes you are right, planning and strategies are the main keys of success in any field of life. The same is here in bitcoin. If I know all the related information and knowledge and skills I will earn more and more from bitcoin while using different aspects of bitcoin.

Otherwise I will just waste my time. I need to make strategies about my work and follow them and that is only possible when you are smart.

I think smart and experienced people will have a good strategy too

[Deathgamer]

I think there are different kinds of smarts, and ultimately it comes down to your goals. Someone who is a mathematical genius may not be 'smart' with their money, and could end up broke.

Well in bitcoin we can do both actually. Being smart at the same time being strategic.these are the best ingredients in order to be succesful in bitcoin. You will earn big and on the other hand learn a lot of things.

Smart Person this person is an extraordinary person and have good strategy, but there are not criticized and have no idea in crypto market they must be luck for them.

[derdk]

strategic i think.
strategic person get more advantage in any situation. they can control their turn in any condition, easy or hard. they can handle any problem with thier tactic, although they not smart. but they will solve problem with any way

[Nambuwan]

I believe that you need to be both smart and strategic to have a successful plan when it comes to your plans in the future especially when it comes to your money decisions. Have a firm plan and ask other experienced individuals and gain knowledge from them.

[Bessta]

Both. One can't be smart if not strategic. Two characteristics that will make one a successful  investor.

[sublime5447]

we must be smart and have a strategy in every action at the same time, especially to survive and achieve a better future, we must be smart in every choice we choose and believe it’s the best decision for the situation we meet at that time . not just in investing but also in our daily lives, we should be able to guess what problems will come later.

[Terry05]

For me I go for being smart, because if you have a witty mind you can think for a good and best strategy. Being smart is necessary if you are doing business that needs very crucial and taught decisions making. If you are smart you study it and you think deeper to make right and good decisions most specially when doing a bitcoin business.Once you are smart you can think and do a strategical decisions.

smart has many kinds, a genius in physics doesn’t mean also genius in investing or in financial problems and it’s possible to be so poor because of miscalculations.
this is where the role of others will be useful, we will ask for opinions from family, friends, or even an expert in his field. for example if we are confused where to invest our money or what investment is suitable for us then we can ask the financial advisor to help us to decide the right choice for us in future. but it’s up to us, to decide is our decision, we are responsible for the decision then we must remain as a wise person.

[junglist.massive]

not enough if we are just smart without strategy and it’s also useless if people calculate strategies but not smart enough to observe and learn the situation and environment, experience is the one that makes smart people become wiser in making decisions. so they can’t be unrelated and contribute to each other.

If we're to define a person by amount of money as being smart...than we can look at top richest list.

What if the most smart person is actually in hiding -- doing farming in some far of land living through his own work.

I think it is best to fuse both characteristics because having one of the two alone does bot guarantee you a high probability of success. Being smart alone isn’t enough. Why? You can be as much smart as you want but you don’t know the ways and turns of this industry, how can you be smart. Same as being strategic alon, you may know what makes things tick but then you cant decide which way is best to attain your goals. So I’d say both.

[Hamstead]

For me I have ton prefer of being a smart person because if you are a smart, then you are a strategic person also. Yes you have a lot of strategies but then you don't think it wisely, maybe that kind of strategies will make you fall. Being a smart person, always thinking of a very effective strategic idea that make themself succeed in a battle.

Yes I agree with you.I prefer both. If you are a smart person but you have no strategies in life you cant make money and not be successful. If you have work it does not end in that. You must know how to budget the money you will earn. If it is spend in different things and be dedicated in unimportant things you will not be a successful person.

Being smart without strategy is I think you will just excel in school and not in life after graduating in college. We dont really need to be in the first place un school. The important is we are in first place in our life so we will not be poor and we earn big amount of money.

Most of the time being smart is associated with good strategies. But some smart individuals are having difficulty with strategy. Smart individuals are too focus on getting the right answer. Individuals with good strategies are flexible to certain situations. You can excel at school by being smart. But in the real world being smart isn't enough. Thus, i agree that you need to be smart with good strategy to be successful in work and making money.

I think strategic is more nicer. No matter how smart you are, if you’re not strategic at all, I don’t think that you’ll be successful in anything that you do or you have less chance.
