Summary

In today’s class, we’re talking about the other part of the 80/20 rule. You’ve probably heard of it—80% of your results come from just 20% of your efforts. This is a real principle, not just a theory or opinion. We’ll look at that final 20%, why it matters sometimes and why it doesn’t always. You can use this rule in your work, sales, happiness, and productivity.  Let’s figure out when that last 20% actually makes a difference! Show Notes: [02:42]#1 Once you have achieved 80% of results with 20% of inputs, that's often good enough.  [13:25]#2 You can afford to invest 80% of your resources in getting to the last 20% of results because that last 20% can make a big difference. [22:18]#3 The mistake happens when we have already achieved 80% of the result, yet we keep working at giving inordinate amounts of resources to get small returns that do not produce rewards.  [25:45]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 2177: When "Good Enough" Is Good Enough Next Steps: Text Dre Baldwin: Text Dre at 1.305.384.6894 (or go to http://www.DreAllDay.com/Text) Work On Your Game University: http://www.WorkOnYourGameUniversity.com  Sponsor: AG1 by Athletic Greens: http://drinkAG1.com/WORKONYOURGAME  Get Dre’s Emails FREE:  Http://WorkOnMyGame.com  Free Audiobooks:  The Third Day: http://www.ThirdDayBook.com/audible The Mirror Of Motivation: http://www.MirrorOfMotivation.com/audible Get The Free Books: The Third Day: http://ThirdDayBook.com  The Mirror Of Motivation: http://MirrorOfMotivation.com The Overseas Basketball Blueprint: http://BallOverseas.com  Basketball: How To Play As Well As You Practice: http://HoopHandbook.com/Free  Donate:  CashApp: http://Cash.app/$DreBaldwin  PayPal: http://PayPal.me/DreAllDay  Be sure to Subscribe to have each new episode sent directly to you daily!
