2. Employ the 80/20 Rule for Time
Management
If you've ever studied business, you're probably familiar with
the 80/20 Rule , also known as the Pareto Principle. If not,
here’s a quick explanation: In 1906, Italian economist
Vilfredo Pareto discovered that 80% of results come from
just 20% of efforts.
So, how can this principle improve your time management
and productivity? The key is to focus on the 20% of tasks
that bring 80% of the results while minimizing time spent on
less impactful work.
How to Apply the 80/20 Rule in Time Management
✅ Identify High-Impact Tasks – Find the 20% of tasks that
generate the most revenue and business growth.
✅ Delegate or Eliminate Low-Value Tasks – Spend less
time on activities that don’t contribute significantly to your
goals.
✅ Work During Peak Productivity Hours – Align your most
important tasks with the times of day when your energy levels
are highest.
✅ Prioritize Quality Over Quantity – Instead of checking
off many small tasks, focus on the few that create the biggest
impact.
