Energy and Efforts

For years I had been under the impression that hard work is impressive. This concept was instilled within me at an early age, and is apart of my DNA. However, hard work that is not harnessed toward a specific objective is merely an ineffective use of energy. The proper use of energy is effective. An effective Boxer doesn't swing aimlessly at his opponent. If he or she does it equates too a lot of hard work but it does not equate to effectiveness. Effective effort is efficient, it is focused, calculating and planned. So remember less is more! Richard Koch in The 80/20 Principle shares that the secrets to success is acheived by not doing more but by doing less more efficently.

 

Consider these thoughts:

1. How can I best harness my energy and efforts?

2. What ineffective efforts do I need to eliminate?

3. What activity will produce the most efficiency?

 

Have an Efficient Day,

The Wise Guy
