Our modern world is all about more

• More choices
• More to do
• More advertising
• More magazines
• More food choices

You could call this the law of progress but for many small business owners the issue of MORE is a certain path to total overwhelm.

How come we successfully use more with less when it comes to science technology and business but we insist on more with more when it comes to our working and personal lives?

A business seeks to find ways to have less wastage of inputs, design production processes to save time, minaturise components to enable smaller (less bulky) products and on it goes because there is always a way to deliver even more for even less.

Why do we consistently fail to apply this rule to our own lives?

To get more money, more status, more interesting work, an exciting life it seems as if we need to give more and more to our work life, business or customers to the point where there is no time or energy left for yourself, your family, let alone have time for healthy relaxation.

Life in the fast lane, is actually work in the fast lane.

So how to reduce the more pressure?

A simple rule called the Pareto Principal when applied to your business or personal life can make for real change in the way you work and how much time you have to regenerate and recharge your thinking and energy.

More isn’t more
