Living the 80/20 Way: Work Less, Worry Less, Succeed More, Enjoy More

The 80/20 principle states that 80% of results come from only 20% of causes or effort. The 80/20 Way revolves around using time more intelligently by focusing on the 20% of important, vital things that lead to most of our success, happiness and fulfillment.

Koch, the best-selling author of The 80/20 Principle, wrote this book for non-business people to help them learn how to apply the laws of focus (“less is more”) and development (“create more with less”) to work, money, relationships and life. His theory is that by doing less, we can live more.

“Chuck your to do list, make a not to do list.”

“Focus is the secret of all personal power, happiness and success.”

“Make a great mental leap: dissociate effort from reward. Focus on the outcomes that you want and find the easier way to them with the least effort, least sacrifice and most pleasure. Concentrate on what produce extraordinary results without extraordinary effort.”
