Did you know: 80% of your results come from just 20% of your actions?" This is the Pareto Principle in action – and it’s perfectly reflected in Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Here’s what makes these habits powerful: Be Proactive (Habit 1): Focus on your circle of influence. Don’t waste energy on things you can’t control. Begin With the End in Mind (Habit 2): Define your mission statement. Visualise your goals. Put First Things First (Habit 3): Use the urgent vs important matrix. Prioritise meaningful tasks over distractions. 🔑 Takeaways: 20% of your actions (the important ones) lead to 80% of your success. Covey’s habits teach us to focus on high-impact activities rather than being busy for the sake of it. Start small. Shift just 1–2 hours per week toward important, long-term priorities.
