We show them how rich people use the time of other people to gain more wealth. One example is the fast food chain like Jollibee and McDonald. The owners are not the one you see operating the business but instead the crews, staffs, and manager of the store. They make money out of the efforts of others and the more they are the more they gain wealth. Another example is like buying cigarettes. How many are buying cigarettes right now? If 10% of 95 million Filipinos are smoking, how can sell it to them at once or at the same time? Lucio Tan did it. He uses the channel of distribution to multiply himself, from factory to the warehouse, from warehouse to the wholesaler, and from the wholesaler to store or from the vendor where we can buy cigarettes.
They become rich using the Law of Leverage where they can multiply their time and effort through others. The training is good and the people learn something that can change their life if only they find a way to apply the Law of Leverage.

This is not a true story but it shows the reality how to value things that is lost.

After the training, we traveled back and along the road the vehicle accidentally hit the chicken that crosses the street. It’s a hen that lays eggs. When we ask the owner of that chicken, How much is that chicken? The owner pauses and calculates the price of the chicken. He valued so much the hen that only few know how expensive it is. He shows the price and I was shocked to see the amount of that chicken. It’s almost P1,000,000.00 and how could this be. The farmer said, well that hens lays an egg, and some become a hen and lays eggs too. In her tenth generation, that chicken can produce over a million of eggs and I only charge it for only P1.00 and you must be thankful that. Speechless that chicken applied with the law of leverage and the farmer is the mentor.

Three forms of physical leverage are used in everyday life: a lever, a pump and a set of pulleys. Each form of leverage reduces the effort needed to obtain greater result. We use lever to lift a heavy load. The longer the lever the easier it becomes.
As human beings, we have two form of leverage: bestowed and acquired. The bestowed are the ones we’re born with. The three form are gifts, talents and abilities. The acquired forms are knowledge, attitudes and skills. They can be learn or taught.
We use our leverage to increase the results possible from our other sources – especially our mediums of exchange. The only use of our mediums of exchange is to enhance the benefits from all our other resources.

    What are our resources?

  • Body – Physical Health
  • Mind – Capture, storage, retrieval and correlation of information in order to solve problems, creativity
  • Relationships – Good relationship will offset any deficiencies in other resources.
  • Possessions
  • Leverage ( Bestowed and acquired )
    There are two forms of medium of exchange

  • Bestowed Medium – Time, it’s the only reason that all human beings have in common 24 hours every day. The only benefit of time is to enhance our other resources. It allows us to use and enjoy our bodies, minds, spirits , relationships, possessions, leverage and money. Without time, none of these would have any real meaning.
  • Acquired Medium – Money, like time, its only real benefit is to enhance our other resources and our enjoyment of the benefits they offer.

multiply yourself trough others
In the business world, the leverage principle is applied with even more wondrous effect. No one has the time or energy to build successful business on his own. An entrepreneur’s success is tied directly to the amount of leverage he can bring to bear. That’s where customer referral comes in. It is a system specifically crafted to give ordinary access to extraordinary leverage.
Linear Income is where money paid in exchange for time and Residual Income is the kind of income that provides real leverage. Once you have established a residual income stream, it keeps on flowing, even if you decided to take a year off.
