The Pareto analysis was formed by Vilifredo Pareto. He studied about the unequal distribution of wealth in his country and come out with a formula. He observed that 20% of the people owned 80% of the total wealth. Few years later, Joseph Juran applied the principle to quality-control. This principle applies 80/20 rule where 20% of something is responsible for 80% of the results.

The first line, “I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow” (1), displays a paradox,…
