Why You Should Not Resist 80/20 Principle by Celes on Jan 10, 2009 | ShareThis Email This Post This is part-2 of a 3-part series on achieving more with less in your life using the 80/20 principle. Some people have written off the 80/20 rule, because of misunderstandings of the rule itself. Below are examples of what the 80/20 is NOT about: 80/20 is NOT about extremism. My initial resistance toward 80/20 I used to write off the 80/20 principle because it was at odds with my perfectionist and idealist persona. However, all those sentiments were from looking at the 80/20 rule in the wrong manner. 80/20 is not about being incomplete, being lazy or not putting in our best effort. If at any point the net outcome is worse from applying the 80/20, it is due to a wrong application of the principle (because we wrongly identified something that is important as unimportant), rather than it being a fallacy. Looking at 80/20 with an example Let’s imagine you have a coconut plantation with 100 trees. The role of judgment in 80/20

Get Your Big Rocks In First by Celes on Feb 2, 2009 | ShareThis Email This Post For today’s article, I’m going to start off with a timeless story which exemplifies the big idea I’m going to share.

Block Your Time – Effective Time Blocking Techniques To Boost Your Productivity Quite recently I video blogged about time blocking and how to do it the right way.

The News. | A life in 5 years January eighth. A tuesday. The day I got the results from my 150 day experiment. It started with me sleeping in a bit longer than normal, two hours of meditation and then my new weekly Qi Gong class, a class where I purposefully opted to stand rather than sit. I reasoned on my walk home the night before that for me sitting was a type of defeat, and since I knew I would hear good news later in the day, I needed to stay away from anything akin to defeat. So I stood as I moved through the positions radiating and intaking healing energies. As the day went on, that feeling never went away, in fact a nervous energy also swept over me, making me feel like I was generating and/or receiving something like stereophonic energy, pumping on multiple channels to the beat of my heart. And with that much energy surging through me, I was a bit more antsy than usual. I guess you could say I was a bit nervous. I had been so sure for 150 days. At least I was able to keep my good humor about it, right?
