Hi Barbara!

I've just come from your Efficient v Effective video

First, let me tell you that clicking on the comment link there is neither! LOL! It doesn't work and that could be why the counter is still showing no comments.

Second, Thanks for reminding me. I'm sometimes too submerged in the effort to be efficient to get to the 20% of my effort that gets me 80% of my effectiveness.

Thanks again!

Rijuta, an interesting take on efficiency and effectiveness.

I like your thoughts.

Hi Lana,

I appreciate your comments and thoughts....I didn't go into the depth you did. Thank you.

Prior to writing about this blog, I felt both being efficient and effective was what I was striving for.

However, I am more focused on being effective now because my ultimate goal is to get results that i want, and I can measure results more easily using effective as a guide.

Efficiency is an 'effective' criteria for reviewing results, however efficiency can cause more stress if one is trying to be efficient and at the same time effective. I prefer to move forward if it's not quite perfect, not quite efficient. The bigger goal is to keep moving forward toward the goal or result.

I'd like to hear what other readers think. Each person likely has to define what works best for them.

Hi Barbara,

I put first on my list: happiness, joy, purpose and balance.
Then my effectiveness is enhanced, giving me greater efficiency.

Always helpful, Barbara!
Thank you!
