Applying the 80/20 Principle in your Engineering Career – Engineering Career TV Ep. 7

April 24, 2017 By Anthony Fasano

The 80/20 Principle by Richard Koch – A Book Review

Welcome to Episode #7 of Engineering Career TV. In this episode, I talk about a book titled The 80/20 Principle: The Secret to Success by Achieving More with Less by Richard Koch.

I spend most of the Engineering Career TV episodes answering questions that have been submitted from engineers around the world on how to rapidly advance their careers and live the lives they want to live.

You can submit questions for the show by clicking here.

Let’s jump into today’s book, The 80/20 Principle: The Secret to Success by Achieving More with Less, which is the first in a series of book reviews where I discuss the following:

Key Takeaways:

  • The 80/20 principle – 20% of your efforts generate 80% of your results.
  • Applying this principle in your career and life will help you to be less stressed and have much more success, by focusing on the big things.
  • Ask yourself this: “What are the 20% of the things that I’m doing, that are driving 80% of my success?”
