Fail Small Not Big
View each day as four quarters (morning, midday, afternoon, evening) to make it easier to bounce back quickly from setbacks or distractions. By failing small, you can always recover in the next quarter.
Pareto’s Principle
Pareto's Principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, is a concept that approximately 80% of the effects or outcomes result from 20% of the causes or inputs. In other words, a small portion of the factors or efforts often contributes to the majority of the results.
Higher Order Decisions
We are constantly faced with problems to solve and decisions to make. A helpful tool when faced with multiple tasks at hand is to ask yourself: What is the one thing I can do that will make everything else easier or unnecessary?
This helps unpack and prioritise the tasks at hand and determines the right sequence to do them in order to achieve maximum results with the least amount of effort.
