10|80|10 Principle & Why You Need to Utilize It!

Taking a short flight to Denver reminded me of a principle that would serve all of us as entrepreneurs. It relates directly to our time management as well as how well we delegate our tasks. It’s the 10/80/10 principle. Think of a pilot’s primary focus: smooth takeoff and smooth landing. And much of the rest of the flight works on autopilot.

Similarly, you can adopt the 10/80/10 principle by automating repetitive tasks and delegating non-essential responsibilities. By freeing up time and mental energy through automation and delegation, you can concentrate on high-value tasks that require your expertise and contribute to the growth and success of your business.

By following this principle, you can strike a balance between hands-on involvement in critical aspects and leveraging systems, tools, and qualified individuals to handle less critical tasks. This allows for increased productivity, efficiency, and a smoother overall business journey.

So, let the 10/80/10 principle guide you as you navigate the entrepreneurial skies, prioritizing the essential elements and finding ways to automate and delegate non-essential tasks. By doing so, you can experience a smoother takeoff, a successful journey, and a satisfying landing in your entrepreneurial endeavors.
