Greetings to the project hope community, this time we are going to discuss the topic of leverage, rather than defining leverage in this article I will try to explain how leverage can improve your life as an entrepreneur, I hope you like it and you can leave a comment.
A well known phrase when talking about leverage is "give me a lever and a foothold and I will move the world", this phrase refers to how a person can magnify their strength using the principle of leverage, the lever is a simple machine that is able to magnify the strength of a person to lift an object, with this in mind we can think of our work as a lever, the strategy we are using to achieve success as a fulcrum and our goals as the object to be moved.
When an entrepreneur applies leverage they can do it in different ways, a good example is a person who uses the time of others to develop a product or service, another good example is entrepreneurs who use a team to be able to work in less time and with higher quality, another way of looking at leverage is to use other people's money to make a profit on an investment.
If you use other people's money to buy an asset that will later be sold, it is possible to make a profit from the total investment and not simply from an individual investment, the principle of leverage helps you to magnify your effort, as entrepreneurs who want financial freedom it is necessary to understand that we need to maximise our work with the help of other people or other available resources to make faster progress in achieving a goal.
It is very sad to see entrepreneurs who spend energy and resources unnecessarily to obtain very low profits for a job that if leveraged in an organization will multiply the amount of income for the same activity, for a couple of years I know this principle that I try to develop in an organization capable of increasing the number of customers I can serve, I think the fastest way to grow is with a sales organization or a digital business with which to leverage many people who bring their energy, strength and creativity to my success.
On the other hand, it is not always good to be the person who uses the leverage, because also the people who work and are part of that leverage can benefit economically or can benefit by learning to do an activity that later will be of much economic benefit, in both cases the principle of leverage works for the benefit of all involved, now if you are an entrepreneur and want to achieve something big in life you must understand the principle of leverage.
In conclusion, organisations should be seen as a kind of lever, the work methodology as an axis on which that lever should be based and the objectives as the object to be lifted, from my point of view it is always advisable to take advantage of the time, creativity and effort of other people to magnify the work you do, on the other hand without an organisation that helps you to reach more consumers you will always be limited by your personal effort.
