I have Internet ADHD. I can never get a chance to finish reading something because I'm always searching information that was mentioned in the article I was trying to read. But anyway, on my search (I can even remember what I was looking for in the first place) I found this article talking about the 80/20 rule. It was mentioned in the movie "Why did I get married" but for other reasons. This rule is mainly applied in businesses, but can applied to your personal life as well. The rule states that 80% of your outcome or results are based on 20% of your activity or input. If you apply this to any areas of your life, you have to figure out what part of your life makes you the happiest (80%)--then apply how you achieved being happy (20%) and focus more of your time and energy on the 20% so that you can get the greatest results (80%) of being happy.
So the moral of the story...work harder on the 20% so that you can achieve the desired 80% (not the other way around). Not only work smart, but work smart on the right things. Stop wasting time on things that don't matter...
Here's an example... (+) 20% of t.v being off can contribute to 80% of weight loss...instead the situation is this (-)20% of my t.v being on contributes to 80% of my weight gain..lol
The real meaning of 80/20 in the above case....."get up off your lazy a$$"
Enjoy
Interesting way of thought. So if I save 20% of my money, I can buy 80% of the things I want?
