80/20 Rule + Parkinson’s Law

To wrap up the last 2 posts:

‘there are actually two ways to dramatically cut down the amount of time necessary for any task and to increase your results dramatically. The first is you limit the tasks to the important, so they don’t take much time. That’s the 80/20, and then the Parkinson’s Law is you limit the time so that you limit yourself to the truly important.’

That’s what Tim Ferriss says (also read his book The 4 Hour Workweek which develops this topic).
