Work Smarter, Not Harder

Suppose I am to build an artificial fishpond and I need to employ someone to excavate the field measuring one square hectare with a depth of one meter. I will pay you Php250.000 for the job using your own shovel. If you start digging now, you could probably cover the whole area at the end of the year. I am offering you a large sum because it is my obligation to compensate a laborious job.

Meanwhile, your friend learned of the offer and quickly applied for the same job. He plans to rent a digging machine for Php50,000 and projects to finish the job in just a week. Do you think he has also done Php250,000 worth of service? Who worked smart and who worked hard?

What you have just pondered on is an application of the Law of Leverage. The digging machine represents the lever to have the economy of movement and to give a minimum input that can achieve maximum results. Leverage creates speed and simplicity of work or activity performance.


HOW? The answer is LEVERAGE! Start leveraging yourself today!
