80/20 principle

I read about the 80/20 principle, a book written by Richard Koch. The central belief suggests that 80% of outcomes (or outputs) result from 20% of all causes (or inputs) for a given event.

The author has picked many examples in his 20 chapters to confirm his 80/20 principle. On self-examining various events in my life, I am willing to buy his narrative. The theory applies everywhere from business, love, friendship, entrepreneurship, team, productivity, et all.

But does it makes sense to buy and read this book, I don’t know. I am an impulsive book buyer and bought this few months back. I read it this week because I heard over a dozen times about the 80/20 principle.
