I believe I heard this saying for the first time when I was listening to an audio book from Jim Rohn. That man had some incredible philosophies.
'Major in the majors'
In simple text, it means stop wasting your time on the little things, and rather focus your time on a major task, that can reap a major reward!
Don't major in the minors.
Examples of minor tasks:
- Chatting on messaging apps.
- Scrolling on Facebook, Instagram, or any non-productive site.
- Watching TV.
- Playing Xbox, PlayStation, PC or mobile games.
- Washing the dishes, cleaning the house, etc.
- Complaining, moaning, worrying.
- Sleeping.
These are all examples of minor tasks. Why? Because none of them are scalable when more time is invested.
Now, that wasn't completely accurate.
Especially in today's day and age, some of those tasks can be a major for one person, but a minor for another. Let me explain.
Playing games for example. There are many YouTubers who make a full-time living from posting videos of them playing games. This then becomes a majorly demanding task in their daily lives. However, if you are just playing games to chill, and you are spending hours per day, then it's definitely a minor task.
Make sense?
