80/20 Rule
Not too many people know about the 80/20 Rule. But Honestly, I think it makes Perfect Sense. Many psychologists even have conducted research in regards to this interesting theory. The 80/20 Rule pretty much states that not everyone is perfect, which is true. So when your in a relationship with someone, they may have most of the qualities you are looking for in a mate, but of course not all of them. Because of the this, some look for the few qualities their mate does not have in others, overlooking the fact that that is all the "other" person is good for. In the end 80% is always a greater number an worth more than 20%
SO whats your take on the 80/20 rule? Do you agree, cuz personally I sure do! Are u a victim of this theory? (by victim, i mean have you messed around on someone because they were missing the 20% or have you been messed around on cuz you were the one who was not all your mate wanted you to be?)
What are some possible consequences of not obeying this rule?

im glad u wrote about this coz i have always wanted to see if anyone else thought it was true like i do. I have been in a place where 20% looked good in theory but not fact. I feel like it's true and that you can definitely not find someone who is 100% perfect...
ReplyDeleteGIRL U SURE CAN'T...but a person has to be willing to allow the good and desirable qualites a person does have to overshawdow what they lack...if they truely care about that person...unless a person feels that what thier significant lacks is that serious to the point where it may ruin the relationship, then maybe it is time to look elsewhere, but just don't downgrade lol
ReplyDeleteBut i strongly agree with 80/20 rule, and i feel that alot of people either unconsciously or maybe even unconsciously fall victim to it
