The 80:20 Rule Pareto Principle,
It says that typically 80% of unfocussed effort
generates only 20% ofresults.The remaining 80% of results are achieved with
only 20% of the effort.

broad pattern of a small proportion of activitygenerating non-scalar returns recurs so
frequently that it is the norm in many situations.
