You Are Your Own "Mastermind"

Recently I had the joy of setting up a “Mastermind” session. Well, what's that? Those of you who know what it is also know how powerful it is.

It is getting great minds in one room and discussing goals, plans, positive energy and what the will is for everyone to move forward in their lives.

When you share this with others, it gets out there. It gives your goals a sense of purpose and meaning. I have been involved with a phone session similar to this for a few months now. The people I converse with are brilliant. The people I shared the live session with a few nights ago are brilliant.

You are brilliant and you need to share that with others. When you do this, you bring out things that you may not have known were there. You bring your own thoughts to the table of your dreams. Others do the same and together you find out things.

Your goals and dreams may be specific or general. They should be a little of both. You should have a clear picture of that. This is a time of sharing with others and reflecting on all the things that have been done before us to give us these opportunities.

Look at all the great speakers, leaders, dreamers, thinkers, business owners, whatever it may be, it has been done by someone and it leaves us clues to seek for our own venture forward.

So let's talk about the mastermind we are setting up here. This is going to be done quarterly. We are “A Knights of the Round Table Happening.” This is 13 people sitting in the round, sharing.

The very first session was amazing and I think we all got a lot out of it, a lot to think and reflect on. So you may be thinking, “well, I do all that, I am positive, I work hard etc.” This kind of session makes you accountable to yourself and to others. It brings you closer to a diverse set of minds and validates what you are already doing.

So you may also be thinking, ”that's not for me, I can't do it, I have too much going on etc.” If that is what you think, that is what you get more of.  I have learned from a great mentor that what you think about, you bring about.

Your thoughts lead to your actions and your feelings. Whether you believe that or not is up to you. You can test it, you know, but you have to be real when you do it. One little try at something, doesn't make it so; it takes time and practice.

That's where a mastermind can help, no matter where you are in your life.
