Problem: Article: Developing strategy is built on a foundation of understanding. In order to create a method by which you can succeed in your given area, you must recognize and accept the shortcomings. When you understand what needs work, you can build a strong action plan for overcoming those obstacles. Here's how to spot those shortcomings.  Look for the activities or responsibilities you constantly put off. People often avoid what they feel less competent in. Pay attention to the feedback of those around you. If your partner and your boss give similar constructive criticism, the common ground may be an area of weakness for you. Ask the opinion of a trusted friend. Find someone who will speak candidly with you and ask him what areas you can refine. Look closely at previous setbacks. When you failed at a task in the past, what were the major barriers to your success? The next step toward identifying your given objectives is to assess what resources you have at hand. Do you have everything you need to reach your goals? Are you maximizing these resources by using them most effectively? For example, oftentimes, a leader may have a team of people there to help on a project, but only employ a few of the players. Make use of every person available to you for optimal success. Now is the time to dream. Close your eyes and envision what you would like to see happening in your life over a set period of time. Think about your career. Your relationships. Your finances. Your passions. Your health. Ask yourself the following questions:  What is missing from my life right now that I would like to incorporate? Am I moving towards the person I want to be? Where do I see myself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? . Once you have pinpointed a few goals that you would like to move towards, it's time to create an action plan to reach them. In order to ensure that these goals come into fruition, they need to meet certain qualifications. The most effective goals are SMART goals.  S is for specific. Your goals should outline who is involved, what you want to accomplish, where this will take place, when you expect to reach the goal, which requirement or resources are needed, and why you want to achieve it (i.e. the purpose). M is for measurable. Your goals should include a concrete and clear way to track progress. A is for attainable. You should be able to see yourself reaching these goals and know that you have the skills, resources, and willpower to achieve them. R is for realistic. Your goals must be feasible based on your unique circumstances and the resources you have available to you. Set the bar high, but not so high that it's nearly impossible for you to achieve it. T is for timely. Your goals must include time constraints. If there is no time frame, there is no urgency. Allot yourself a reasonable amount of time to reach the goal while still challenging yourself.
Summary: Know the issues. Recognize the resources available to you. Figure out where you want to be.  Develop SMART goals

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A four-seam fastball is gripped with the index and middle fingers going perpendicular across the U-shaped seams. Your two fingers should touch the seams of the baseball in four places: the bottom of both fingers and the top. This will help create the cut in your fastball, as the last finger that touches the ball will be the middle finger. Your thumb and your top fingers may not be exactly diametrically opposed, but they should be pretty comfortable.

SUMMARY: Start off by gripping the ball as would a four-seam fastball. Move your two fingers together and slightly to the right, placing extra pressure on your middle finger. Keep your thumb in the bottom position, or perhaps up on the inside of the ball, anchoring.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Set your oven to 360°F (182°C) so it can heat up while you prepare your ingredients. If your oven runs a little hot, set your oven to 350°F (177°C), and if it runs a little cool, set to 375°F (191°C). Preheating usually takes about 15 minutes. Coat the bottom and sides of your casserole dish or roaster pan with cooking spray. Spread your cabbage evenly in the bottom of your dish. Drizzle olive oil over the cabbage. Lightly toss the cabbage to evenly distribute the oil. Arrange 1 to 2 pats of butter on top of the cabbage. Encourage a better distribution of butter by breaking pats into chunks and spreading these over the cabbage, or by using more pats of butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. To give your baked cabbage some kick, lightly sprinkle some crushed red pepper flakes over the it. Toss the cabbage to distribute the flakes. This will prevent the cabbage from becoming too dry while it bakes. Do not overfill the pan. The water should be no more than a quarter of the height of your cabbage. Lid your dish and put it in the preheated oven. Allow the cabbage to bake for about 45 minutes. Open your oven and remove the lid with an oven mitt or potholder. Close the oven and continue to bake the cabbage until the water has evaporated. Stir the cabbage occasionally during this time with a utensil, like a wooden spoon. Baking the cabbage for about an hour and 15 minutes will yield a very tender, slightly browned cabbage. Remove the cabbage sooner for firmer cabbage. Serve your cabbage and enjoy.  Use an oven mitt when handling the dish and place potholders beneath it to prevent burns and heat damage. Seal baked cabbage in an airtight container and save it for up to 5 days in your refrigerator. Frozen, your prepared cabbage can last up to 12 months.
Summary: Preheat your oven. Add cabbage to your casserole dish. Place butter on the cabbage and season it. Fill the dish with a thin layer of water. Insert the dish into the oven. Remove the lid and continue to bake the cabbage. Remove the cabbage when cooked to your preferences.
