The 80/20 principle of life

I finally picked up my copy of Four Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris a few weeks ago. Since then I’ve read through it a few times.
In conjuction with Tim’s elimination rule, he presents the 80/20 principle, otherwise known as the pareto principle.
The Pareto principle states that, for many events, 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. It is a common rule of thumb in business.
