Have you ever felt like you’re constantly juggling a never-ending to-do list, struggling to find purpose and balance amid all the chaos? You’re not alone. The sacred verses of Ecclesiastes 3:1 remind us that “To everything, there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven.” But how do we discern the moments that truly matter amidst the hustle and bustle of our modern existence?
Enter the 80/20 rule, a principle that suggests a small fraction of our efforts often yields the majority of our desired outcomes. Inspired by the Scriptures, we embark on a journey to uncover the hidden gems within our daily activities, the 20% that holds the key to unlocking a more purposeful and fruitful life.
In this episode, Rob Dayton joins us as we delve into the concept of the 80/20 rule and how it can help you identify and leverage the 20% of activities that yield 80% of the results. We’ll share practical steps to help you identify these activities and encourage you to lean into your strengths while delegating tasks that don’t align with your abilities. Plus, we’ll discuss the importance of self-awareness and self-reflection in understanding your unique capabilities. Join us in envisioning a movement where business leaders use their resources to create a lasting impact.
