A shame really as it spoilt an otherwise great book for me, which offered some inciteful content.How anyone can be more effective with less effort by learning how to identify and leverage the 80/20 principle-the well-known, unpublicized secret that 80 percent of all our results in business and in life stem from a mere 20 percent of our efforts.
RICHARD KOCH 80 20 PRINCIPLE PROFESSIONAL
Normally I'm a big fan of the author presenting their own ideas and much prefer that but on this ocassion Koch woukd have been much better letting a professional get his message across. Also his erratic speaking / phrasing did nothing to help. This gating meant that many of his words were cut off as the gate closed too harshly or early, making it a struggle to hear all the dialogue clearly. As someone who works with sound professionally, the over-enthusiastic use of the noise gate made it very hard to listen to.
My biggest gripe though was the terrible quality of the recording.
A couple of areas of the book seemed to stray off track a little although the author was clearly trying to impart his life wisdom - personally, although some parts were interesting enough they didn't add value to the general view of the book. It also makes you appreciate just how much comes from certain activities and how you could modify your results in certain areas of life with some small changes. The general Content of the 80/20 rule was quite eye opening in that it translates into virtually every aspect of life. When you learn how to systematically apply the 80/20 principle, you will finally have the power to transcend the pressures of modern life: to become more successful and to enjoy more leisure, serenity, and great relationships with friends and loved ones. But by concentrating instead on the few things that do matter, you can unlock the enormous potential of the critical 20 percent and multiply your happiness and fulfillment.
