Pareto’s Law

your personal productivity. When applied to the practice of
time management, it produces remarkable results.
Basically, there are just four ways to increase your productivity—that
is, to generate more results in less time:
1. Do more of certain things.
2. Do less of certain things.
3. Start doing something you are not now doing.
4. Stop doing something you are now doing.
Consider the first two statements: doing more of certain
things and doing less of certain things. Pareto’s Law makes
the task of determining what to do more of and what to do
less of relatively easy. It involves four steps:
1. Identify your highest-value activities—the 20 percent
of things you do each day that contribute 80 percent
of the value of your work.
2. Identify your lowest-value activities—the 80 percent
of things you do each day that contribute little of the
value of your work.
3. Resolve to spend more of your time on your highvalue
activities.
4. Resolve to delegate or eliminate as many of your lowvalue
activities as possible.
Applying Pareto’s Law in this manner will allow you to
significantly increase the level of your personal productivity
