The Power of Ideas

The Idea of Leverage

Leverage

The most famous quote about leverage is

Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.

Archimedes (287-212 B.C.)

Can one person move 15,620 bottles of healthy tasty goodness?

I can’t.

However can 3,905 teams manage to move 15,620 bottles of healthy tasty goodness?

Now that’s more likely…

Easier Said than done, right?

Instead trying to use all your energy to lift the burden, use your time to attract the necessary help of others. Using our time to enlist other people’s efforts is how we create leverage in business.

Lets talk about the Next Idea before we continue:

The Law of Averages.

A pattern emerges.

In baseball, the batter that has a batting average of .300 is out 7 out of 10 times… and he is paid $4,000,000.  

Think about that.  Whatever you do on a consistence basis, a pattern emerges, and you can calculate the average.

The same thing shows up Sales. No matter how hard you try, not everyone will buy… However, if you see enough people, a pattern emerges. 1 out of 10… I’ll take that. 2 out of 10… even better. 3 out of 10? Wait that’s six people.

Expect failure and move on. If you strike out, Big deal that’s baseball… and there’s no crying in baseball.

A Team Effort.

The task is simple.

Recruit five people.

Support those five people in their efforts to recruit five people

Track each associate’s progress.

Ask for help.

Have everybody with that goal in mind. And the lever you make will move

15,620 bottles of healthy tasty goodness. 

By the Way,

The reward for completing this challenge is almost

$20,000… a month.

That’s something I’ll take a swing at.

The only thing I’m confused about is, if I’m an entrepreneur starting my business Par-Time, or a corporate middle manager. 

Is it hard? You bet.

Is it worth it?

Infinite persistence, produces immediate results.
