The 80/20 Principle, like the truth, can make you free. You can work less. At the same time, you can earn more and enjoy more. The only price is that you need to do some serious 80/20 thinking.

There is no rush. If we think intelligently about what we can achieve with our time, we can be relaxed, even lazy. In fact, being lazy - having plenty of time to think - may actually be a precondition for achieving a great deal.

Make the choice that you want to be happy. You owe it to yourself and you owe it to other people too.

Celebrate exceptional productivity, rather than raise average efforts.

Laziness is the road to progress, but only when it is allied to intelligent thought and high ambition.

Strive for excellence in few things, rather than good performance in many.

Chose the niche that you enjoy, where you can excel and stand a chance of becoming and acknowledged leader.
