I found this definition on Dictionary.com :

a plan, method, or series of maneuvers or stratagems for obtaining a specific goal or result: a strategy for getting ahead in the world.

Seems okay with me. I would go obtain your goal. Smile

You do not need to have an opponent in order to have a strategy. By "opponent" I mean a physical person. What you need to have is a goal to achieve. All in all, you can use the word "strategy" in your book.

You may have a strategy to build a house but you will need tactics to justify your position
