Restrict your focus, increase your output

Pareto’s Law 🧠

“For many events, roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes”

Vector Theory 💭

“I find it liberating that you only have to get two big things right!”

The Problem Of Clutter 👎

Clutter = any new venture that doesn’t exclusively contribute to our desired outcome.

🤝 The Benefits Of Focus

Scope 💭

Business 💰

Don’t generalise; specialise. If you focus on doing one thing well and hire specialists in that area, the quality of your work will improve, and you will stand out among your competitors.

Don’t be afraid to say no to projects. Prove that you’re serious about specialisation by turning down work that falls outside your area of expertise. The more people you say no to, the more referrals you’ll get to people who need your product or service.

When in doubt, simplify.

The only way to win is to learn faster than anyone else.
