80/20 YOUR LIFE: WORK LESS, WORRY LESS, SUCCEED MORE, ENJOY MORE

Nice quality prints

Very important book in life

Book is probably lit, but someone was getting jittery with their double double somewhere in the packing process... not that big of a deal but disappointing none the less when ordering a brand new book.

A follow-up of „the 80/20 principle“ (which I haven't read), which was recommended to me as a kind of „work instruktion“ to apply the mentioned principle to your daily life. The first half of the book describes the basic thoughts of the topic, while the second half leads the reader towards application of the 80/20 principle using tools and exercises (like what is your own 80/20 principle and other questions and tables). The basics are not new to me, but I was applying this know-how in business applications especially when planning projects, allocating budgets and similar. The examples might seem a little outdated (modern tools like smartphones as well as the internet play a minor role), but in general, hit the mark. Will apply some of the exercises and see when and where I reach the tipping point (title of another great book). I am not a big fan of the little one sided approach of working less, I am more into achieving better results with my time, a fact that the author only touches briefly. In general, a solid read, completed with (a short) notes and appendix section, book can be finished in a few evening sessions, layout is minimalistic which I appreciate, as well as the font size.

This is a very insightful book on the 80/20 principle and how you can apply it to your life. This takes you through all the different aspects of your life and gives examples and explanations that make it very applicable. This is a very useful tool for anyone looking to make changes in their life and make great strides!

I enjoyed the book and the frameworks to put together a personalized system. The steps and actions are simple but not easy to execute.
