Today we're going to talk about ways that you can accelerate your success.
As we all know, relationships are everything in business.
And if you're trying to branch out and do something challenging,
it's easy to get discouraged.
One great solution is to enlist the support of a mastermind group.
Over the years, I've used many groups to help accelerate my own success.
Like E.O.
Whipple, book studies, and even just conferences that I go
to each and every year.
A lot of you may have never heard of a mastermind group,
but they've been around since the 1920s when somebody by the name of Napoleon Hill
and hopefully you know who that is recommended a mastermind alliance.
In his book The Law of Success, he said that a mastermind group
should be the coordination of knowledge
and effort with two or more people who work toward a definite purpose.
In the spirit of harmony, I'm just going to tell you what my experience has been.
Every time I brought my knowledge into a group,
I've learned a lot more from the group than I knew before I went in.
That general definition still holds today was some modifications over the years,
but most mastermind groups usually adhere to a specific formula.
So the first thing is that each member gets a chance to be on the hotseat
where they can discuss their own personal goals and challenges that they all have.
Then each and every member gets an opportunity
to help brainstorm solutions for them.
The best thing about these groups is there is accountability.
Typically, there's at least one person who will follow up with the members
to make sure that they have done what they said they would.
For example, in the mastermind that I have called the Collective,
I have a monthly calls with all my members, and they all have
wildly different goals that they have, both personally
and professionally, and we're working through those goals together.
Another great thing about a membership or group or mastermind
is that it's consistent.
So we meet four times a year, but each and every one of the members
are getting to know each other.
They're getting to know each others goals and obstacles so every meeting,
the group gets tighter and tighter and better and better.
And there's great insight with getting to know somebody better.
And sometimes the other person isn't always aware of some of the obstacles
that they might have.
Each group should have its facilitators in our group.
There's myself, George Gavin and Jason Hartman,
and we all come from different points of view.
This helps the overall group because each of us are taking people
from our own network and bringing them to the meetings
so that we can
all learn together In the past, we've had people like Robert Kiyosaki,
Mark Victor Hanson, Robert Barnes and Jeff Snider, just to name a few.
The one thing to keep in mind is that the mastermind group is not a class.
And while you're likely
to learn a lot in a mastermind group, there is no curriculum.
You learn at your own pace.
It's also not a group coaching session, and everyone learns at their own pace.
As we all know, some of us get very biased.
Certainly I do, and sometimes I have blinders on
and getting around a group of other people that have different views
and thoughts about things can certainly change my own
individual beliefs and thoughts as I move forward.
Which of course, is just opened up opportunities and helped me
make better decisions
and mastermind groups like the Collective are more than just networking groups.
Yes, members form connections for sure, and they may share
leads and resources, but it's not the group's main purpose.
The main purpose is, of course, to gain knowledge and move forward
on your own personal
goals and personal objectives in business, especially if you work for yourself.
It's easy to plateau or get stuck.
So being in a mastermind
group will definitely help you see things in a different way.
If you're interested in knowing more about my mastermind.
Just take a look at the highlights from our last event.
George Gammon, Jason Hartman and I have.
We've created a high level mastermind group called The Collective.
The goal of the Collective is for you to learn from the three of us
how to build and more importantly, how to maintain your wealth.
Most of us choose our friendships really by default.
That's why a lot of life is really luck.
You know, are you going to run into the right people
or are you going to meet the right people?
What if you could push luck and you can do that
through a mastermind group because you will automatically
be in the right room with the right people?
I found throughout my life the best way that people learn,
the best way people absorb information is by enjoying themselves
Then we need to learn, but we need to do it in a fun way.
We're so happy to have you involved in the collective.
This is our second event, and you've been at both of them.
You've spoken at both of them, and it's just a pleasure to have you.
What do you think about the group?
It's a step above.
I mean, it's for me, it's perfect.
Because you are who you hang out with.
I think shared experiences are the stock and trade of friendship.
When we formed the collective, we really want to bring these experi
essences with people.
So some of the experiences
that members can expect to get out of the collective are certainly the network.
They're going to have lifelong friends for sure.
The relationships that you've built among the members, that's that magic within.
So if you're thinking about the collective, I would highly recommend
taking that next step, getting that next information.
And really, it's been a pleasure for my wife
and I being a part of the collective and look forward to many more.
Members of the collective will have the opportunity to meet and hear
from a great speakers,
people who have actually been there and done it, not people just talk.
About it.
You can sit there and listen to a podcast and it doesn't have that impact
as sitting down and talking to someone face to face.
I think that's the magic.
I think the right person for
the collective is somebody who's into personal development,
somebody who's trying to be a better individual.
They might be in a stage in life where they realize
obviously there is no security, there is only opportunity.
Connections that I've made so far.
I can envision them being memorable
and pretty important to my life in the future.
So I love the collective and I'm having a really good time.
So if this makes sense to you and you see the value in a mastermind
group to accelerate your success to know the right people.
