Did you know that 80% of your results come from just 20% of your efforts? It’s the Pareto Principle, and it’s the ultimate game-changer for productivity and planning.
Here’s the thing: Not all tasks are created equal. Some are high-impact—they create big results. Others? Low-impact—they keep you busy but don’t really move the needle. The key to productivity is focusing on the tasks that truly matter and ditching the ones that don’t.
Focus on High-Impact Tasks
✅ In Business:
Following up with warm leads or pitching to high-value clients.
Closing deals or negotiating better terms with suppliers.
Planning your next product launch, campaign, or strategy for growth.
Reviewing your financials to optimise costs and increase profitability.
Creating content that directly connects with your audience and drives sales (e.g., emails, webinars, or social posts).
Building relationships with key partners, collaborators, or investors.
Focusing on customer retention strategies—keeping existing customers loyal can be more valuable than chasing new ones.
Developing or refining your high-ticket offers to maximise revenue potential.
✅ In Personal Life:
Scheduling and completing your workout to stay energised and productive.
Meal prepping for the week to save time and avoid decision fatigue.
Planning things to look forward to—like dinner with friends, a weekend getaway, or a creative project—so you stay motivated and excited.
Taking 15 minutes to organise your priorities or review your schedule.
Spending time recharging with activities that truly help you reset (reading, meditating, etc.).
Eliminate or Delegate Low-Impact Tasks
These tasks fill up your day but add little value. Be ruthless with them:
❌ In Business:
Answering every email the second it arrives.
Spending hours tweaking small details that don’t affect results.
Handling admin work manually instead of automating it.
❌ In Personal Life:Bingeing social media or over-checking notifications.
Running errands multiple times a week instead of batching them.
Overcommitting to things that drain your energy without a clear benefit.
✨ Pro Tip: At the start of each day, ask yourself: “What’s the ONE thing I can do today that will make the biggest difference?” Then go all in on that task.
