Episode 16: The 80-20 rule - How to simplify your life and focus on what really works

In this episode of The Three Little Birds Podcast, I’m talking about the Pareto Principle, also known as the 80-20 rule, and how it can help us simplify our lives, businesses, habits, relationships and thoughts.The idea is simple: a small percentage of what we do often creates the majority of our results. That might mean 20% of your habits create 80% of your wellbeing, 20% of your thoughts create most of your stress, or 20% of your relationships bring most of your joy.This isn’t about cutting corners or doing less just for the sake of it. It’s about becoming more intentional with your time, energy and focus. Where are you over-complicating things? What actually moves things forward? What feels heavy but gives very little back?I share how I use this principle in my own life, business, wellbeing practices, relationships, calendar and spending. My hope is that this episode helps you notice what’s working, let go of what isn’t, and create a life that feels simpler, calmer and more supportive.I hope you enjoy it, I hope it makes you think and I hope it helps.If you have any questions, or if there’s something you’d love me to talk about in a future episode, please do email me.
