In the world of writing, the 80/20 principle or better known as the Pareto Principle has strong applications. This principle states that about 80% of results come from 20% of effort. How can we apply this principle to create interesting, concise, and effective articles? Let’s explore the steps from head to body and closing.
Section 1: Head (20%) The head of your article is a crucial starting point for capturing the reader’s attention. This is where you need to apply the Pareto Principle carefully:
Interesting Title (5%): Make a title that is interesting and reflects the essence of the article. Use catchy words, interesting questions, or even mild controversy.
Short Introduction (15%): In the first paragraph, clearly state the point of the article. Introduce the topic in an interesting and passionate way.
Section 2: Body (80%) The body of your article is where you will explain your topic in depth, but still efficiently:
Importance of the 80/20 Concept (20%): Dedicate approximately 20% of the article’s content to briefly explaining the Pareto principle. Give concrete examples of how this principle applies in various contexts.
Application in Writing (60%): The rest, focus on applying this principle in the world of writing. How can you distill the information that is most relevant and has the greatest impact on readers?
a. Selective Research: Focus on relevant and in-depth research to gather key information that you will share with your readers.
b. Concentrated Structure: Use an effective structure to organize content. Start with a strong core, then efficiently explain the supports.
