The 80/20 Principle (book)

The 80/20 Principle, introduced in the book by Richard Koch, states that roughly 80% of results come from 20% of efforts or causes. In everyday life, this means focusing on the vital few actions that yield the greatest impact, rather than spreading yourself thin on less effective tasks. It encourages prioritization and efficiency, helping individuals and businesses identify and concentrate on the most valuable activities to achieve better outcomes with less wasted effort. Ultimately, it’s about working smarter by recognizing what truly matters.
