The concept of Smart Work

Work Smart Can Save Your Energy 



At first the Italian economist named Vilfredo Pareto (1848 - 1923) was only half surprised by the results of his research. That 80% of the wealth enjoyed by the country only 20% of certain groups of population. In other words, 80% of the population only had the opportunity to enjoy 20% of the nation's wealth.

Say it is assumed that the total population reached 100 million, meaning only 20 million people are rich by getting 80% of the country's wealth. The remaining population of 80 million people live hand to mouth because the cake countries that only 20% to be divided. Because the half-surprised by the results of these studies, Pareto and conduct research in other countries, but the result is equal or nearly equal.

The results of this Pareto since 1897, was inaugurated into a formula or formula with various names: the Pareto Principle: The Pareto Law: The 80/20 rule: The Principle of Least Effort; or The principle of Imbalance. (If there be time ane jelasin one-one) said that since the Pareto considered less articulate in peddling its findings are based on the development of methodology and research context, ultimately encouraging experts to step in completing the formula or the findings are considered to be very useful for the enlightenment of human civilization.

In 1949, George K Zipf, a professor from Harvard University, developed the study area by making findings of Pareto as a reference. The result is that humans, objects, time, expertise, or all the means of production have had a natural rules relating between results and activities with the ratio ranging from 80/20 or 70/30. Example: Since it is considered enlightening, the formula is then applied to personal development.

Apparently the experts in their respective fields to find something which is roughly the same as Pareto's findings. This means that if the talk of results, the accuracy of the process, and quality then those things are closely related to how well or how good are you doing, not how Often and how long.

In other words, the results obtained is determined how far you can work intelligently. Some examples: In the business world, to seize the market you must think in terms of accuracy minimalistis strategies that do not exceed market needs. That is found 20% of the strategies that can capture 80% market appeal by making a 80% premium to the 20% solution of loyal customers.

Do not sell out a strategy that actually spend 80% of the cost but will only create a 20% rate of return (Mack Hanan, the Fast Growth Strategy, McGraw-Hill International, Singapore, 1987).

Research in terms of effectiveness and efficiency of the time found that 80% achievement reach someone in any field from 20% of the time spent. And 80% happiness in life is determined from 20% of time spent looking for it.

Ask yourself, how much time you really use in connection with the destination you go to the office in addition to the jam, chat, or daydreaming, or discuss other issues with fellow work? If your answer using the formula turns out otherwise then you do not have differences with others and it just means that you have not applied the way of working smart. 

Employment Application Smart As the nation's religious and rich ancestral cultures, actually call this intelligent work is nothing new. But the problem again - another form of tools that are not updated.

Aside from the "language of heaven" who often deny the scientific understanding of natural and do not in any contextual elaboration. Consequently an understanding of the teachings of religion and culture can only work on issues that are minorities in real life.

Before announcing the results of his research with Pareto 80/20 formula, we have been taught to distance themselves from acts wasteful or unnecessary. Unfortunately, we understand the teachings of waste only to the extent that we throw away the leftovers. Very rarely do we think redundant in the profession, economics, or strategy.

To abstain from action that wasteful in terms of realization of smart work should start from the following steps:

1. Focus on the scale of development 
If you believe that you yourself have an edge or a natural talent, in addition has the disadvantage caused by environmental factors or heriditas, then really you need is to live intelligently with these advantages (living with the competitive advantage factors). Just in case you find strategies to live with excellence, then you will get out of an average limit of environmental achievement.

Before that, the maximum you can achieve is quality of life like everyone else or as achieved by the ten people that you know the closest. So where excellence is directed? Clearly, that advantage should be directed to optimize what is called the Pareto formulation with 20% of determining factors (determining factor).

Therefore, find out what the critical success factors of those you list the activities you do in life. Leave things that are unnecessary and focus only on things that have the potential for self-development.

2. Dare to Sacrifice 
In the world of this size there are many "little problems" that if you do not dare to sacrifice to forgive can be a problem that will dominate the charge of your mind that could eventually make you forget about the excellence, ideals, self-development focus, and so on another.

Examples of the simplest and most often occur in front of our eyes is when you're on the highway. Outside of a serious collision problem, sometimes just because his car tersenggol few people willing to waste a lot of time and happiness go to the office. It could even be evolving toward fistfight. However, if forgiven (willing to sacrifice a little by losing a few hundred thousand just to fix a scratched car), then all business is finished. Auditlah your mind, what matters is if you forgive will not be detrimental to your mission or vision and not replace the contents of your mind with negative charge. 

To find out whether the problems you face will not hurt you, use the following audit standards:
1. What do you think the top priority in life. 
2. What do you think is defined as important and unimportant issues. 
3. What do you think is defined as emergency and non-emergency issues that may not be important and not a priority. 
4. What do you think the problem is defined as "trash" - is not important, not urgent and not a high priority. 

But in this case you need to be selected strictly and carefully, because the danger if you are easily incorporate this issue into a trash can then you could be stuck to abandon the mission or focus of life only for reasons of maintaining the existing position or condition. If you get stuck then it finally happened is not the 80/20 formula but on the contrary.

3. Make insulation barrier 

In the end you have to define the limits of what is to be achieved, how to achieve it, what the capital, and will direct you where you live. In this process of selection and exclusion occur. Of the wide world and its contents, whatever you've selected a thing you really want as your personal foundation formats such as: mecca of life, ideals, goals, targets and actions.

The clearer you have the format of selection and exclusion, focusing on the development of self-sacrificing courage accompanied by understanding, acknowledging, throw something that is not needed in yourself, the more apparent the world to be "right" to you so that the summed up what the determining factors to success was. That is the deciding factor becomes less and less elaborate and usually that simple it would be able to work optimally. While that is likely complicated, intricate and complex are usually barren.
