Strengths and Weaknesses: Internal factors, like financial or human resources, equipment or systems, culture, reputation, and how they relate to the goal. If that specific factor is a strength or a weakness depends on the goal. Essentially look for what constitutes an advantage or a disadvantage for achieving the goals.
Opportunities and Threats: External factors, like outside funding, suppliers, market, political and environmental trends. These factors are typically outside your control, and anticipating them can be good to optimise opportunities and handle threats. Map the opportunities and threats to the internal strengths and weaknesses in order to assess whether you need to make adjustments to your strategy.
