Strategy is made in heaven, execution carried on earth,
Visions attract many, for operations there is a dearth.
The leader decides what to do, you blindly toe the line,
Innovation is oh! so glorious, Operational Excellence just fine.
Visions provide direction, but if you fail to execute,
The best laid plans of mice and men, go tumbling down the chute.
If you want to execute with elan, list your Wildly Important Goal,
And by saying No to everything else, stop them from taking toll.
When working towards that goal, don't obsess day and night,
Just focus on the steps you need, and all will be alright.
Do keep a check on the daily count, of how many steps you took,
By this simple measure, of accountability, you'll achieve as per the book.
I know all that I need to know, of how Execution is King,
When you need to put your ass to work, Discipline is the thing.
