Hi, this is Brian. Welcome back to another heroic Wisdom Daily. Today's wisdom is from the 8020 Principle by Richard Koch. Now Richard teaches us quote the 8020 principle tells us that 80% of results come from just 20% of actions. So instead of spreading your energy thin, focus on the small actions that create the biggest impact. Check out the notes for more on the 8020 principle. One of the first ones I created. Super powerful. Here's a quick look at how to apply the 8020 principle today. Number one, identify your vital few. Richard says find the 20% of activities that lead to 80% of your results. Choose one high impact task to focus on today. Number two, let go of the trivial many. He tells us to eliminate or minimize the activities that don't move the needle. Drop one unnecessary task from your to do list today. Number three, Amplify what works. Double down on what's already driving success. Commit more time to your most productive habits. With all that in mind, what's one way you can focus on the few things that matter most today? Think about that and again, check out the notes on the 8020 principle for more.
