Our busy lives constantly pull us away from what is important to us. Simplifying your life is one way to make sure your time is focused on the activities that bring you the most satisfaction. Applying the Pareto Principle, as well as other strategies, can ensure your time and energy are being channeled in a way you value.

Reasons To Simplify Your Life

Most people say they want to simplify their lives because they feel like they have lost control of their time. They want to have more time to do the things they want to do, both at work and at home. Every few weeks, there is another newspaper or magazine story about how people feel that they aren't spending their time on things they enjoy.

A recent poll, for example, found that 65% of people are spending their free time doing things they'd rather not do. Isn't that amazing? It's great if you have created a full and interesting life for yourself, but how frustrating if you don't have the time to enjoy it!

The 80/20 Principle

The 80/20 Principle, first stated by Vilfredo Pareto in 1897, says that 20% of our effort produces 80% of the results. This means that a small number of resources are highly productive, while a large number (80%) are not very productive at all. Here are a few examples:

*20% of the things in your house are used 80% of the time
*80% of the things in your house are used 20% of the time
*20% of your activities give you 80% of your satisfaction
*20% of the members of an organization do 80% of the work
*20% of the books in a bookstore account for 80% of the sales.


The challenge is to identify those few vital items that produce the greatest value for you. Focus on the activities that result in satisfaction, better health or more free time. At the same time, identify those many trivial items that do not lead to things like satisfaction, better health, or more free time. These unprofitable activities are taking up 80% of your time. Doesn't it make sense to deemphasize them in favor of the vital 20%?

Strategies For Simplifying Your Life

Making Time Takes Time

The first challenge to simplifying your life is that it takes an investment of time. If you want to discover how to make time for the things you enjoy, you have to examine how you are spending your time now.

If you keep living your life the same way you always have, it will stay complicated.
