The 80/20 Rule

The 80/20 Rule states that 20% percent of the tasks set before us are vitally important; the other 80% are negotiable. Each of the ten tasks we have may take the same amount of time to accomplish. But one or two of those tasks will contribute five or ten times the value of any of the others. If we work on the priorites, we will reach our goal. Rich DeVos said, "The only things that stand between a person and what they want in life are the will to try it and the faith to believe it's possible." Iam actually looking forward to eating my Frog today. I can't remember when I've actually exercised five days in a row. But this week it has become something I look forward to. Soon it won't be my "Frog" anymore and I can choose a new one to work on. Now my challenge is to do as well next week. If I do it one day at a time, I can make it. I had my diabetic eye exam this morning and things looked pretty good. However, he could see signs of beginning diabetic eye hemorrhaging, so I need to go in six months to see if it is progressing or not. I hope my choices will help prevent further damage. That knowledge makes my choices even more important to my future happiness. More motivation!
