A chart shows how 20% of effort generates 80% of results, with returns flattening sharply after that initial push. The steep curve at the start reveals where most gains happen, then effort becomes increasingly inefficient.

I want to share this chart with you. This chart is called the Power Law of Results. To the far left, we have cumulative results, and at the bottom we have input effort. When you look at this chart, you can see from 0 to 20, you had the most parabolic increase in results. After that, there was a diminishing return from the effort given in that input, showing you that the 20% of anything can always make up the 80% of the overall results.
