One Exercise For More Clarity & Energy

Did you get caught up in the rush this month?

It’s an easy time to get swept up in the end of the year whirlwind of the holidays, vacations, and finishing projects you had planned for 2024. 

It’s an even better time to put on the brakes and make some space to slow down and reflect on what you really want to focus on in 2025.

There’s ONE rule that can help you get clarity about any area of your life- health, fitness, relationships, finances, or career.

It’s the 80/20 rule!

It says that 80% of our results come from 20% of our actions.

When you know what to focus on, you’ll get better results AND have more time & energy.

Here’s how to use it.

80/20 EXERCISE

Let’s pick one area of your life that you are wanting to nail down the 20% of activities that’ll give you the best results.

For this example we’ll use work or business tasks or responsibilities to make a list.

Step 1: Write down all the tasks you do at work or in your business on left side of a page.

Step 2: Write down your biggest wins at work or in your business on the right side of the page.

Step 3: Draw a line from each big win to the task that is directly responsible for that win. 

Step 4: Circle the tasks that have lines drawn from them. This is your 20% that’s responsible for 80% of your results. These are the activities you want to focus your time on.

Step 5: Schedule and block time for your 20% activities. Post them in your work space to remind you of them when you get overwhelmed or distracted with new shinny projects.

Step 6: Work on delegating, automating, or eliminating anything that’s not on this list.

Reflect each day to see if you’re doing your 20% activities. It’s OK if you get off track. No need to beat yourself up. Make a plan the next day to create some space for your 20%.

Over time, you’ll do MORE of what leads to the Big Wins and LESS of what doesn’t give you the best results.

Make this list for any of your daily activities that impact your health, fitness, mood, money, or relationships to find the top habits/actions that help you get the best results.
