The 80/20 principle has been a centerpiece of the Primal Blueprint approach and philosophy since the beginning, but I still get comments and questions about it. In case you're not familiar, the 80/20 principle suggests that in the context of a full and earnest commitment to making health-promoting choices, conforming with the 10 Primal Blueprint Laws 80% of the time will yield a solidly healthy result. Many tell me how much they love the concept. It's a feature that makes the Primal lifestyle possible for them. Others suggest that it leaves too much room for backsliding. Still others find it confusing—does it mean living 100% Primal only 80% of the time and partying it up that other 20%? Or does it mean living 80% Primal 100% of the time? (The answer is neither, as you'll see.) I love having these kinds of discussions within the community. Your perspectives help me to continue to grow and evolve my thinking even after all these years. So let me share my perspective on the 80/20 principle, and I encourage you to share your own thoughts in the comments as well. Just because I'm "the Primal guy" doesn't mean I get to dictate how you interpret what it means to live Primally, nor how you embody these teachings in your own life. It's obviously a general principle and, as such, it's intended to mean different things to different people. What Is the 80/20 Principle, And What Is It NOT? In short, the 80/20 principle is a rule to make Primal doable in the context of the modern world. It's a feature that makes the Primal Blueprint a fully achievable, enduring lifestyle that reconciles with the grind and disruptions of daily life. Let me put it this way: the 80/20 principle is an acknowledgment that we're adults who take full responsibility for every choice but occasionally find ourselves in circumstances that aren't conducive to adhering fully to the Primal Laws. You should always have the intention to do your best, to aim for 100%. But you should not let your commitment to Primal living become a source of stress or anxiety, and you shouldn't beat yourself up or throw in the towel when perfection isn't possible. You have agency and reasoning skills, so you should be able to make conscious compromises. Perhaps you're on vacation and really want the experience of sampling the local cuisine. For you, it's part of the adventure. You authentically choose within the 80/20 principle to make the most of your hard earned adventure. (Personally, this is my favorite manifestation of the principle.) Maybe it's a special anniversary or family gathering. You don't use the situation as an excuse to wildly abandon your commitment to health and longevity. You loosen the strings enough to find the best balance between short-term experience and long-term goals. Sometimes the 80/20 principle is a matter of feasibility. Travel doesn't always present the most ideal Primal options. A difficult period in your life (new baby, death … Continue reading "The Primal 80/20 Principle"
