The Awesome Power of Leverage

02 Nov

The longer the lever, the greater the impact!

“And you shall remember the LORD your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth,” (Deuteronomy 8:18a)

What key forms of leverage are you lacking?

Leverage equals speed. If you want to create wealth, you need leverage. Lots of it. There are 3 parts to leverage. The first part is the objective (the dream) that you intend to bring into reality. The second part is the fulcrum. That is you. You are the object upon which the lever pivots. The third part is the lever itself. Success depends on the length and strength of the lever. The longer the lever, the less force that is needed to move the object.

The longer the lever, the greater the impact. Leverage is the power to control a lot with just a little. Big doors swing on little hinges. In the business world, there are five kinds of leverage – other people’s money, other people’s experience, other people’s ideas, other people’s time, and other people’s work.

Millionaires are constantly looking for leverage. Enlightened Millionaires constantly ask: How can I leverage this situation, this opportunity, this idea?

Alone you are without leverage. We are better together. Six key forms of leverage that give maximum leverage include 1) mentors, 2) teams, 3) networks, 4) infinite networks, 5) tools and skills, and 6) systems.

Those who network the networks gain the most leverage. The value of a network is the square of the number of people in it. A key contact has “make it happen” power. One word from this key contact and things happen.

Prayer Power
LORD, I praise You as the God of wisdom and the God of multiplication. Apart from You I can do nothing (John 15:5). Thank You for the burden You have placed in my heart to see Virginia become the healthiest state in America by the end of 2007. Bless me with the disciplines and wisdom needed to accomplish this. Guide me to optimize the six key forms of leverage mentioned above. Multiply my impact exponentially to bless millions of families to be a blessing to millions more. Thy will be done. In Jesus name, I pray and give You glory. Amen.
