The
Powerful Mastermind Team

A few years ago I read the book, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon
Hill. I remember being very intrigued by the title and wondered
"How could anyone grow rich just by thinking?
When I first began to grasp a fragment of what the book was revealing
about success, I was reading it again as a result of a business
I was working with. This time I noticed the one element that was
mentioned constantly throughout the book. Have you read and discovered
the one secret element within the pages?
It's not bad to read a book and miss the point. But if you read
a book that is recommended by so many business-minded people and
you don't get the point, you may want to read again until you get
the point. Each time you read, you will receive a deeper awareness
of what is being offered by the book
Recently, from reading the book again, I completely got the importance
of having a mastermind team. It's not good enough just to form a
team. It is important to take some steps to create the team in a
way that builds a solid foundation for complete loyalty and commitment..
How do you form a criteria for choosing team members?
- It would take many pages to fully explain the dynamics of a
powerful mastermind team. Here are a few tips for you to consider
in your search for teammates:
- Write down what you wish to achieve, yourself. This goal may
be to have people hold each other accountable or it may be to
create a new business venture to create a specific minimum of
income. It may even be to create a non-profit venture of some
sort. It is important that you clearly know what your own intention
is from the beginning.
- Begin to attend business meetings where you get to observe the
participation of others. Are they consistent? Do they move the
conversation forward? Do they have skills that may make a difference
for what you wish to create? Do they express similar goals without
having heard yours?
- Look for people who are successful in what you wish to create.
This will bring velocity to your success.
- Be sure to include people who are at higher levels of success
than you are. They will be eager to participate when they see
your clear intention and your total commitment to the intention.
It's okay to go it alone. You may achieve a few great things alone.
And if you can achieve a few great things alone, imagine what you
can achieve with a team of supportive people causing you to have
your dreams with more ease and velocity than you ever thought possible.
If you have no failures, redefine your goals. They may be too small.
It may take time, but the big goals are the ones that get you up
bouncing in the mornings like when you were a child. Remember?
