10/80/10 Rule

In all aspects of life, we come across the 10/80/10 Rule.

Take a cup of coffee…

At the bottom, we put the sugar, the coffee and perhaps other additives, like caramel or hazelnut syrup, etc.  This ten percent could be seen as the “bad”.

Then we add the water.  This symbolises the eighty percent “good”.

Then, finally, the milk or cream, – the fluff, or the “luxury”- the last ten percent.

We stir this all up and eventually, things will settle back down into the 10/80/10 ratio.

This could apply to us Humans too…

There will always be ten percent bad (our prison population and criminal element).

Eighty percent good, your average, hardworking people and,

Ten percent that will be the cream of the crop, the wealthy and the leaders.

As with the coffee, you stir them all up and in time, things will settle down and naturally, will separate in the 10/80/10 ratio, as that is where people are most comfortable.
