    Hi Kevin,

    I haven’t read the material that you have recommended but what I’ve read that introduced me to the 80/20 which I start to apply since is Tim Ferris “4 Hours Work Week” and also from my mentors at work who have achieve top levels and I hope to follow their successes in the near future.

    What tricky about this rule is you have to be able to identify the 20% that will yield the 80% result that you would like to see. So knowing your strength is one but also understanding all the project parts that contribute to that 80/20 to me was challenging at first but now I use this rule religiously at work and home. It’s a time saver for me to concentrate on other tasks at hands that I usually make up excuses of not completing them.

    Cheers.

    Good point. Another challenge I face working in a large public sector agency, is the reality that others, or at least existing SOPs, can dictate a lot of what must be done.

    Hi Kevin,

    Yes, cannot agree with you more. With public sector, there a lot of rules and procedures that you will need to understand in order to find the right loophole to apply the 80/20 rule.

    Great topic.

    Cheers:)
