It is said that 80% of our results come from just 20% of our actions. But I’ll bet you haven’t quite found a way to make this axiom work for you.
Yes, there will be lots of work for you to do. Always.
Action – In order to make the 80/20 rule work in your life, there are four important steps to take.
First, understand that you’re not going to get it all done. And don’t let people pressure you about that.
Second, keep your desk or office space organized, otherwise you’ll waste a lot of time looking for stuff.
Third, first thing in the morning and when you get back from lunch, review all your outstanding work. Then choose the 20% actions that will give you the 80% results, no matter how you measure it.
And finally, stay focused on what is in front of you.
The 80/20 rule is possible to apply.
