3-2-1: The 80/20 Principle, mastery, and the importance of asking questions
“How to 80/20 your work:
(1) Make a list of the 10 things you spend the most time on.
(2) Circle the two that truly drive your results. Do more of those.
(3) Look at the others. Eliminate ruthlessly. Automate or outsource what you can. Press pause on the rest.
(4) Repeat.”
