記録の力 / The power of Recording

Taking notes, reviewing them to improve productivity is fun. Will see how I can improve myself by recording all sorts of things.

The 80/20 Principle

2011年1月22日読了

 

 

 

<General>

  • 80 percent of what you achieve in your job comes from 20% of the time spent.

  • So, there is an inbuilt imbalance between inputs/outputs and effort/reward.
  • Be selective. Focus on what’s important for you rather than others, on selected objectives that can give you a comparative advantage.
  • Employ others rather than being employed by others
  • Calm down, work less and target a limited number of valuable goals rather than pursing every possible opportunity.

 

<Being Free>

  • Think unconventionally, strategically and non-linearly.
  • Be extremely ambitious with relaxed and confident manner.
  • The key is not effort, but finding the right thing to achieve.

 

<Time Revolution>

  • The time triad.
  • Be aware that there is no time shortage.
  • Free yourself from obligations imposed by others.

 

  • Identify the 20% valuable activities that give you 80% performance.
  • Reduce the low-value activities
    • Net-Surfing
    • Drinking while watching absurd TV programs.

 

<Relationship>

  • We devote much less than 80% of our attention to the 20% of relationships that create 80 % of the value.
  • Fewer and deeper is better than more or less deep. Choose with care. Then build with commitment.

 

  • Make list of your Top 20 business (or personal) relationships, of people that you consider to be important allies.
