120% or 80%?

It is amazing what a small change in habit can produce.

For instance, more than 60% of CEOs end up with a heart condition (Xinfu).

Part of the reason for this is more than 2/3rds of leaders work at more than 120% of normal capacity.

Compare this to many of the world’s top business leaders who work at around 80% of normal capacity.

They use the freed-up 20% to follow their own life passions, focus on business strategy and work on the important stuff … not the low-level detailed stuff.

The top 1% also delegate those things that stop them from working on the big things for the business.

Have a go at what you could remove or delegate from what you do in your day.

It might just highlight where you are investing your effort for minimal return.

Have fun out there!
