A commentary on diet, exercise, personal finance, stocks, real estate, leadership, making everything in life relate to some sort of sport analogy, geeking out on statistics, partying, taking about Pareto's laws, Darwinism, minimalism, productivity ideas, how cloudy and dark Seattle is, maximum gains from minimal effort, cool gadgets and the denouncements of uni-tasker gagets, cool quotes, and some music and humor.

80/20 rule
I know blogging about work is a big no no but today was just a true case of pareto's law. (80 percent of your efforts come from 20 percent of your problems) So couple days ago I passed out these forms that I asked everyone to write their emergency information so that incase something bad happens I know who to contact. So two days pass and five verbal reminders spaced evenly throughout the meeting and out of my sample group of 43 participants, guess how many emergency contact sheet I don't get back??? 9!!!!
Fyi 43 people x 20% = 8.6 people
