How Egyptians Built Pyramids 5,000 Years Ago

5,000 years ago, without computers and machines, how did the ancient Egyptians built hundreds of massive hundreds pyramids in the African desert?  Did they use half a million workers to build just one pyramid over 20 years?  

Now physicists at the University of Amsterdam have found the answer.  They investigated the forces needed to pull weighty objects on a giant sled over desert sand, and discovered that dampening the sand in front of the primitive device reduces friction on the sled, making it easier to operate. 

Adding water to the sand, however, increased its stiffness, and the sleds were able to glide more easily across the surface. This is because droplets of water create bridges between the grains of sand, which helps them stick together, the scientists said. It is also the same reason why using wet sand to build a sandcastle is easier than using dry sand.

But, there is a delicate balance, the researchers found. "If you use dry sand, it won't work as well, but if the sand is too wet, it won't work either,  There's an optimum stiffness."   

Same as in your sales.  How can you too build your sales without massive sales force?  You need to have the right strategies so as to create the right Leverage.  With leverage, you can do more with less and even build 'pyramids' in your business.  The 7 strategies are: Service, People, Placement, Benefits, SPIN, Waking up and Loyalty.

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else?

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives.
