pareto
Tuesday, June 18, 2013Is your life Pareto Principled?
The Pareto Principle suggests that roughly 80% of effects come from 20% of causes. Often it’s related to business: you might get 80% of your clients from 20% of your advertising efforts. And it’s useful: if you realise that’s true, you can choose to redirect the majority of your energy to that 20% of activity that is most productive, to further enhance your success.
I reckon it applies to everyday non.business.life too. If I think about it, around 80% of my happiness probably does stem from about 20% of the stuff that I do. So it’s probably worthwhile having a think about my main happiness sources (good coffee! morning neck.nuzzles from My Little One! blue.sky.bike.riding!) and building more of it in, to my every day.
