My new Mastermind group!


This Tuesday morning, I will become part of a new mastermind group from New Wilmington! Three other women business owners, along with myself will meet together for the very first time! I am so very enthusiastic to begin this new endeavor. I have been reading the book "Think and Grow Rich" By Napolean Hill and in the book he describes what a mastermind group is.


There is synergy of energy, commitment, and excitement that participants bring to a Mastermind Group. The beauty of Mastermind Groups is that participants raise the bar by challenging each other to create and implement goals, brainstorm ideas, and support each other with total honesty, respect and compassion. Mastermind participants act as catalysts for growth, devil’s advocates and supportive colleagues.
The concept of the Mastermind Group was formally introduced by Napoleon Hill in the early 1900's. In his timeless classic, "Think And Grow Rich" he wrote about the Mastermind principle as:

"The coordination of knowledge and effort of two or more people, who work toward a definite purpose, in the spirit of harmony."

He continues ...

"No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a third mind."
In a Mastermind Group, the agenda belongs to the group, and each person’s participation is key. Your peers give you feedback, help you brainstorm new possibilities, and set up accountability structures that keep you focused and on track. You will create a community of supportive colleagues who will brainstorm together to move the group to new heights.
You'll gain tremendous insights, which can improve your business and personal life. Your Mastermind Group is like having a objective board of directors.
