Examples of Pareto (80/20 rule) in our daily life Over the past month, I’ve discussed the Pareto Principle, which states that 80% of the outcomes stem from 20% of the efforts or focus areas. Last week, we delved into applying the Pareto Principle to attain work-life balance using the SEE Life Priority Matrix. We pinpointed two criteria, Importance and Satisfaction, to categorise key areas of life like physical and emotional health, career, finances, relationships, social life, and hobbies. By employing these prioritisation principles, we recognised how Pareto can be applied to intricate scenarios such as balancing work and personal life.
