ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

strategy

Strategy is a plan to help you achieve a goal. It's like a map that helps you know what the best routes are to get to where you want to go. Usually, strategies involve breaking down a big problem into smaller steps so that it's easier to figure out how to get to the goal. For example, if you wanted to make a birthday cake, your strategy might include buying the ingredients, measuring them, mixing them together, baking the cake, and decorating it. If you follow that strategy, then you will be able to make a birthday cake!
