This is a crucial thing for you to do if you want to be a collaborator and instigator and leader in your own field, down to the basic core. I have found that people that are engaging, outgoing, calling up a friend or friends to go do something, are the ones that make things happen. Also, going to conferences or partaking in live events online. All these things are extremely important for your own development and social well-being. We need to have human contact and connection. I'm kind of asking my community, this community.... to see how you're going about doing that. Is that something that you're good at? Are you working at it? Are you pushing yourself? Are you taking chances? Are you being vulnerable? Because many people are afraid of rejection, but obviously, you can't be rejected if you don't even put yourself out there. .....JUST LIKE you also cannot create momentum or energy if you don't put yourself out there. This is a question to you all. Let me know what you're thinking about it. Love to hear your input and creative ideas that have worked for you.

Today I'm offering a 5-10 minute free consultation, and you can pick my brain on anything mastermind. Just DM me in the chat and we'll take it from there. First come, first serve, and I'll take the first three.

Here's a question worth sitting with before you do anything else. Why do you actually want to build a mastermind group? Is it for the income? Is it to surround yourself with smarter people? Is it to finally stop feeling like you're figuring everything out alone in a room at midnight? ....Or is it something you can't quite put into words yet but you feel it every time you're in a great conversation with someone who just gets it? I'll tell you where my answer came from: Growing up playing team sports, soccer, handball, I learned something that never left me. The team makes you better. Not because everyone is equal, but because the combination of different people, different skills, different energy, creates something none of them could access on their own. Even dog training, which sounds like a solo sport, is a team of two. You and your dog. Still a team! Napoleon Hill figured this out almost a hundred years ago. He called it the mastermind. He studied Andrew Carnegie, one of the wealthiest men who ever lived, and asked him what his single greatest secret was. Carnegie didn't say hard work. He didn't say capital. He said it was his group of minds working in harmony toward a single purpose. Hill wrote it down, studied it, and put it in Think and Grow Rich. The principle hasn't changed because human nature hasn't changed. Henry Ford had it. Steve Jobs had it with Woz. Every person you admire who built something real had someone beside them, or a group around them, who made the whole thing possible. But here's the thing nobody really explains when you decide you want to start one! DON'T DO IT ALONE!!!!! And I don't mean that in a vague, inspirational way. I mean it literally, physically, practically. At home we heat our entire house with a wood-burning oven. I can tell you from personal experience, lighting one single log is a frustrating, exhausting fight. It barely catches. You work twice as hard for half the result. But you put a second log criss-cross on top of the first one, create that little vacuum between them, and the fire comes to life on its own.

... let me repeat that: "You Don't Need a Plan. You Just Need One Person." Most people who dream of building a mastermind group never start — because they're waiting until they have it all figured out. The perfect format. The perfect six people. The perfect launch plan. Here's the truth after 26 years of running these groups: you don't start with six people. You start with one conversation. The smallest possible step Find one person. Not your best friend from college. Not your sibling. ....someone you've crossed paths with in a business context — someone you met at a seminar, saw contribute brilliantly in an online community, or kept running into through mutual connections. .....someone whose thinking you respect. ....someone who's at a similar stage to where you are right now. Reach out and say something like: "I've been thinking about starting a small weekly group — just two of us to begin with, to share challenges and hold each other accountable. Want to try it for four weeks?" That's it. That's the whole plan. Why two before six...? Most people try to assemble a full group before they begin. That's how you end up with strangers sitting on a Zoom call wondering why they're there. When you start with two, something different happens. You talk honestly. You get to know each other's actual business — the real numbers, the real struggles, not the polished version. You figure out what a great session actually feels like. You build a foundation before you build a group. After four weeks, each of you finds one more person — together. ....You're not recruiting, you're co-curating. You both vouch for the next person. That's how chemistry gets built in, not hoped for. Four becomes five. Five becomes six. The whole group is 90 minutes a week. What makes it work — and keep working? The format is deliberately simple: meet once a week, same day, same time, every week. Not twice a month. Not when it's convenient. Weekly because momentum is fragile, and consistency is what builds trust.

Hi members, Could I please have your help to do some research and improve my community? What would it take for you to commit? What type of training, support or something else would you need? For those who joined very recently, or Later for that matter.... what made you say "YES this is a community I really want to belong to?" Thank you for your help ❤️
