The Breakthrough Principle of 16x Paperback – Big Book, October 1, 2005

This book is a wonderful way to share the power of The 80/20 Principle with others who may have neither the time nor the inclination to read the original book. Given the high quality of this introduction, I would expect that readers exposed to this book would likely go on to read the others in the series.

The idea of the 20/80 is one of the biggest ideas of all times.That most of the results (say, 80%) comes from a minority of causes (say 20%).That way, the effectiveness of the 20% most important of causes, is 16 times higher than that of the other 80% (20%/80% divided by 80%/20%. You get 16 times better.Used smartly, the principle of X16 can make a huge different in quality of life (happiness) as well in effectiveness across all kinds of activities.

Overall a good product

Simple and clear message to apply to your life and business!

Less content than a blog post - what a rip off. If you understand 80/20 you already know this... he just deceives to sell more.

Perfect.

valuable advice and well written, but this should be an appendix to the next reprint of The 80/20 Principle and does not deserve to be a book in it's own right - certainly not at the price. that said, the advice really is good so I give it 3 stars despite myself - 5 stars for the info less 7 stars for being a padded out essay = 3 stars (according to my reckoning anyway).

good read
