The search for the next lever - Why successful people swear by the Pareto principle

01/10/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

The Pareto Principle - also known as the 80/20 Principle - states that 80 percent of results are due to only 20 percent of efforts. Successful people know that it makes sense to look first for the next lever to reach their goals faster. Instead of investing a lot of energy in things that will yield little success in the long run, they focus on the few things that have a big impact. This process is part of a strategy to get maximum efficiency out of any task.

By implementing the Pareto principle, one can optimize their results while enjoying more free time. This way, you can spend more energy on what you really love - be it a new hobby, a new project or a new job.

The Pareto principle also helps you set priorities. By focusing on the most important tasks and outcomes first, you can spend more time and energy on the less important things.

In addition, the Pareto principle allows for improved communication. Successful people can suddenly break down more complex work assignments and goals into smaller, more manageable task packages that are easier to understand, delegate, and follow through on.

Overall, it can be said that the Pareto Principle is a very effective method for optimizing results. By using the 80/20 principle, successful people can get more out of their work while freeing up more time for other things.
