The 80 / 20 Rule
The 80 / 20 rule is an awesome concept in business that basically states that 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. For example, 80% of my sales come from 20% of my customers, so instead of focusing on all the customers, we're only going to focus on the high spending 20%.
Business concepts are interesting because they can be applied to so many different areas of life. Thus I began to think about how the 80 / 20 rule applied in my own life.
80% of your mother's vagina wraps around 20% of my dick
80% of my best orgasms come from 20% of the girl's I've banged
80% of wuwu's penis, fills up 20% of his snug fit condoms
80% of Xanga is filled with 20% of Theolgian's writing
80% of my ass hair resides on 20% of my ass
80% of my staring goes to 20% of her body
80% of my productivity comes from 20% of the time spent at work

The problem with ambition
I question whether ambitious people are happier than non-ambitious people. The problem with ambition is that there is always room for improvement and therefore, it is almost impossible to reach the absolute pinnacle of anything.
For example, you could always be earning more money, or working at a better job, or getting a hotter body, or finding a prettier girlfriend. You could always be learning a new language, or excelling at a sport, or refining your creative abilities. The level of ambition and determination a person has is a good measure of how much they will accomplish in their lifetimes... however, in the end, is it really worth it?
The sacrifices we make along the way in order to satisfy our ambition sometimes makes me question if we're missing out on life. Working till 1AM every night might help my future career, but what about all the things I'm missing out on, like hanging out with friends, enjoying a good book, or simply taking a stroll outside.
Also, if we keep striving for the top, the problem is that we may never get there, so we'll simply spend our whole lives trying. Maybe it's better to just slow down and be content with what we have. Is that settling or being practical? Idealism vs Pragmatism?

Balance vs focus
We can't be everything at once. It is incredibly hard to have a great social life, complete control over our health and fitness, awesome dating and sex life while still being ambitious and successful. Something has to give.
Einstein didn't discover the theory of relativity by partying all day. On the other hand, Paris Hilton didn't become famous by studying physics all day. We can be great at what we do, but often times, it is at the expense of something else.
Many people say balance is the key to happiness, but do great results really come from balance? Or rather an unwavering focus?
I often find it incredibly hard to maintain balance in my life. Sometimes, I will party like there's no tomorrow, other times, I will become a hermit and focus on completing my projects. I find that trying to juggle two or more things at once simply weakens the results of all the endeavors.
Do you strive for balance in your life? Or complete focus? Is it possible to really have both?
