Frases célebres de Richard Koch

“EL PRINCIPIO DEL 80/20 LE DA LA VUELTA AL CONOCIMIENTO CONVENCIONAL La aplicación del principio del 80/20 implica que deberíamos hacer lo siguiente: • Celebrar la productividad excepcional, en lugar de aumentar esfuerzos mediocres. • Buscar el atajo, en lugar de recorrer todo el circuito. • Controlar nuestras vidas con el menor esfuerzo posible. • Ser selectivo, en lugar de exhaustivo. • Perseguir la excelencia en pocos ámbitos, en lugar de un buen rendimiento en varios. • Delegar o externalizar cuanto sea posible en nuestra vida cotidiana y ser alentado, en lugar de penalizado, por los sistemas impositivos por hacerlo (contratar a jardineros, mecánicos de coche, decoradores y otros especialistas siempre que podamos, en lugar de hacer el trabajo nosotros). • Escoger la profesión y las empresas para las que trabajamos con sumo cuidado y, de ser posible, emplear a otras personas en lugar de ser nosotros los empleados. • Hacer únicamente aquello que hacemos mejor y con lo que disfrutamos más. • Mirar más allá de la superficie de la vida, para descubrir ironías y rarezas. • En todas las esferas importantes, descubrir qué 20 % del esfuerzo puede conducir al 80 % de los resultados. • Relajarnos, trabajar menos y marcarnos un número limitado de objetivos valiosos, donde el principio del 80/20 trabaje para nosotros, en lugar de perseguir todas las oportunidades que se nos presenten. • Aprovechar al máximo los escasos «golpes de suerte» de la vida, cuando estamos en el punto de creatividad máxima y las estrellas se alinean para garantizar el éxito.”

Richard Koch: Frases en inglés

“Everything you want should be yours: the type of work you want; the relationships you need; the social, mental, and aesthetic stimulation that will make you happy and fulfilled; the money you require for the lifestyle that is appropriate to you; and any requirement that you may (or may not) have for achievement or service to others. If you don’t aim for it all, you’ll never get it all. To aim for it requires that you know what you want”

“People think that creativity is largely a matter of talent, experience, or luck. They are wrong. Talent, experience, and luck are all key elements, but there is something more fundamental, accessible, and powerful that you can use to multiply your creative effect.”

“In 1897, Italian economist Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923) noticed a regular pattern in distributions of wealth or income, no matter the country or time period concerned. He found that the distribution was extremely skewed toward the top end: A small minority of the top earners always accounted for a large majority of the total wealth. The pattern was so reliable that Pareto was eventually able to predict the distribution of income accurately before looking at the data.
Pareto was greatly excited by his discovery, which he rightly believed was of enormous importance not just to economics but to society as well. But he managed to enthuse only a few fellow economists….
Pareto's idea became widely known only when Joseph Moses Juran, one of the gurus of the quality movement in the twentieth century, renamed it the "Rule of the Vital Few." In his 1951 tome The Quality Control Handbook, which became hugely influential in Japan and later in the West, Juran separated the "vital few" from the "trivial many," showing how problems in quality could be largely eliminated, cheaply and quickly, by focusing on the vital few causes of these problems. Juran, who moved to Japan in 1954, taught executives there to improve quality and product design while incorporating American business practices into their own companies. Thanks to this new attention to quality control, between 1957 and 1989, Japan grew faster than any other industrial economy.”

“Those who can create wealth — and know that they can — are able to dictate their own terms. Wealth is a means to happiness, but it is not the main one. What most people want is control over their lives. They want the ability to choose how they live: what work they do, the way they interact with friends and colleagues, the quality of their personal relationships, the way they view themselves.”
