The Pareto (80/20)Principle – Maximizing Your Talent! Matthew 25:29 For to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away. 1

The Pareto Principle: The Vital Few The Pareto (80/20) Principle provides the means to improve your effectiveness in life by identifying the few things life that matter and then focus on them. 80% of success comes from 20% of your effort. 80% of business profit from 20% of customers. 80% of church income from 20% of members. 80% of the clothes we wear actively are from 20% of the clothes in our closets. 2

The Pareto Principle: Max Your Talent! Matthew 25: 1 st servant (11 of 15) 73%, 2 nd 4 of 15 (27%) and the 3 rd servant had (0 of 15) 0%. Important to identify the few things that really matter to your success and focus on them Judges 7:1-7 Gideon reduced the size of his army from 32,000 to 300 and still won the battle. What excess baggage are you carrying in your life? Don’t bury your talent. Instead, use it based on your purpose. 3

The Pareto Principle: Time and Focus! Law of Focus: Progress will made in the area of your life which you give undivided attention. The degree of discipline that you exercise determines the level of YOUR success. Managing Time: The 3 servants had same amount of time. Ecc 3:1 “To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven.” We ALL have enough time to accomplish divine purpose. Eph 5:15-16 See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time. 4

The Pareto Principle:Be Purpose driven Exodus 18:13-21 Moses thought being busy was same as being effective until Jethro, his father-in- law corrected him. 1 Corinthians 9:24 Run in a race to win the prize not to participate You need to focus on your purpose: Make a concise list of the top 5 things you do. Ask of each one, if I stop doing this, will it affect me adversely. Why is that important? The law of focus states that progress will be made in the areas of your life which you give undivided attention. 5

The Pareto Principle: Process takes time! HOPE is NOT a strategy. Positive thinking alone will not help you achieve your purpose. Success usually requires effort and takes time to materialize. It took Joseph 13 years from his dream to his palace. It took Isaac 20 years to give birth but he had twins. 6

The Pareto Principle: Initiate rather than react! Are you a leader or a follower? Do you use your initiative like the first 2 servants or do you wait for things to happen? InitiateReact Lead: Call Listen: Wait for call Spend time planningSpend time living day to day Anticipate problemsReact to problems Fill calendar with prioritiesFill your calendar with requests 7

The Pareto Principle: The God of 2 nd Chance! If you want to make the most of your life, you’ve got to make the best of your TALENT and TIME. When you identify your priorities and focus on them, it makes the DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING ORDINARY AND EXTRA ORDNINARY. Stop being BUSY and start being EFFECTIVE! The Master did not give the 3 rd servant a 2 nd chance, but OUR God is a God of second chance! John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly! 8
