At the HEART…

Only three things really matter in Time Management:

1. Prioritize

2. To-do List

3. Maximize




1. Prioritize

“Concentrate on results, not on being busy”




1. Prioritize

Pareto Principle: 80/20 rule

Products 20 percent of the products bring in 80 percent of the profit

Reading 20 percent of the book contains 80 percent of the content

Donations 20 percent of the people will give 80 percent of the money

Leadership 20 percent of the people will make 80 percent of the decisions

Picnic 20 percent of the people will eat 80 percent of the food!
