The 80 20 principle (richard john koch) - presented by jennifer vu huong
It is my presentation to summarize about the 80/20 principle - richard john.
I believe if we all can focus on the major things (20% of all things we have been doing) that really matter to us, we can achieve tremendous results (80% of the results)!
It is the power of FOCUS!
The majority of the results come from the minority of the causes.

The final question found that while most could give up social media temporarily, one respondent said they could never do so, indicating a strong reliance on social media instead of real world interactions. Overall, the responses were mixed, with some experiencing problems but still unable or unwilling to stop using social media.

I Might As Well Have No Parents

They were born to a 15-year old mother and abusive father, and lived with multiple family members and in 15 countries over 17 years. Both parents were abusive and alcoholic.

Living Your Company Values
The document discusses the importance of living by your company's values in both thought and action. It notes that inconsistencies between a company's stated values and actual behaviors towards employees can undermine the culture. When management fails to respect employees by giving incomplete instructions then unfairly criticizing work, it damages trust and signals that nonconformity will not be tolerated. For an organization's values to have meaning, they must guide all interactions both internally and externally.
Looking Back Gives You a Stiff Neck
The document discusses how looking back at past opportunities prevents moving forward and finding new opportunities. It advises letting go of closed doors and ended cycles so that one can make space for new opportunities and energies rather than forcing open doors that are locked. By continuing to hold on to the past, one risks something happening to forcibly sever those ties, so it is best to voluntarily move on to the new cycles that lie ahead and will be bigger and better.

It states that Anne has betrayed both the woman and her ex-boyfriend, and that she needs to make peace with her own sexuality and spiritual duality.

The response recommends that at work she prioritize tasks to avoid trouble and ask others to set priorities if they complain. At home, she should focus on her child's needs and not feel pressure to be a perfect housewife, preparing simple but wholesome meals and cleaning what she can while ensuring her child is happy. Finding occasional babysitting help and taking time to rest will help her manage her responsibilities.
Nothing Ever Goes Wrong
The document discusses how nothing ever truly goes wrong and that life experiences, both positive and negative, teach valuable lessons and contribute to personal growth and wisdom. It notes how a person at age 15 lacks such experiences and encourages readers not to wish to return to that stage, but instead to accept mistakes and view setbacks as opportunities to gain insight into becoming the person they are today.
My Mother Is Having An Affair
The teenager discovered through a love message on their mother's phone that she is having an affair with a man who also moved to their new country. Their father remains in their home country unable to get a visa. The teenager is unsure what to do as the affair goes against their culture and religion. The response advises the teenager not to judge their mother, as people can change and affairs often happen after marriages breakdown, with both partners equally responsible. The teenager is told to observe how their parents deal with the situation before deciding what is best for them, and to not blame or judge either parent.
Saving The Best For The Second Wife
The document discusses the annual Bookseller Magazine award for the oddest book title of the year. It notes some past winners, with the top prize going to the 1996 title "Greek Rural Postmen and Their Cancellation Numbers." The document explains that cancellation numbers were postal marks applied by individual Greek postmen, and describes one postman whose undiscovered cache of undelivered letters earned his town a nickname. It then makes a comparison to how people sometimes save their best possessions for hypothetical future occasions or visitors rather than enjoying them in the present.
Please Make Me Happy
The document discusses how true happiness comes from within, not from others or by blaming external factors. It suggests that when people are unhappy, they focus only on the negatives of their situation and fail to see opportunities for happiness. However, every situation has two sides; with effort, people can learn to focus on the positives and find happiness in their current circumstances from hobbies, addressing emotional issues, and making space for happiness in their lives. Finding happiness from within can create lasting, positive changes in one's mindset and well-being.
My Boyfriend Is Crowding Me
The writer is feeling smothered by her boyfriend who has nightly panic attacks, lacks an appetite, wants details about her life, and his behavior is getting worse over time. The document recommends that the boyfriend see a hypnotherapist to address insecurities and fears causing his behavior, as he is fixating his own issues onto her instead of generating confidence from within. Maintaining this relationship will exhaust the writer.
What To Do With Old Photographs And Memories
The document discusses what to do with old photographs and memories. It suggests that photographs allow us to relive both good and bad times from the past. While some photographs may bring back joyful memories, others may represent lost dreams or illusions. The document advises that if certain photographs still trigger negative emotions, there is still personal work to be done. Ultimately, it recommends storing photographs out of sight until you feel ready to destroy them or keep them as reminders of life's lessons.
