I have to be honest and say for most of my life I have never really depended on anyone to get things done.

In fact most times I would have the perspective that people just slow me down, If I wanted something done just go out and do it without waiting on anyone else.  Opinions didn’t mean as much to me because If it didn’t fit my perspective I would rationalize with myself that people wouldn’t look at things the same way I did.  I felt a bit of a loner in my own mind.

Now I realize the power of combined energy and different perspectives…..The power of mastermind groups.  You can accomplish great things on your own, but combined with the right energy and powerful minds to help evolve that same accomplishment can grow bigger then anything you can do on your own!

Here are some tips from Eban Pagan’s Blog on how to create a mastermind group:

So how does one create a MasterMind group, and how does one make sure that they’re doing it “right”?

Here are a few pointers, based on my experience:

1. Make sure most of the people in the MasterMind are FAR beyond you. At least 3-5 years down the road you’re trying to travel. 5-10 years is even better. This isn’t a non-profit organization or a charity event, so don’t treat it like one. You’re in this to GROW. (All the while knowing that if you grow to your full potential, you’ll be able to do much more effective charity work later in your life.)
2. If you do allow others who are behind you on the road to success in your chosen area, make sure that they have MASSIVE POTENTIAL. You’d better be feeling in your gut that they’re a super-star, and it’s only a matter of time before they pass you.
3. Meet regularly in person. If you are located in different geographic locations, it’s fine to meet by phone often. But get together live, in-person regularly.
4. It’s great to have a few different MasterMinds for different parts of your life. A physical-health based MasterMind can be just as valuable to you personally as a financial MasterMind. Again, just make sure that the members are beyond you.
5. Make sure that the people you invite to the MasterMind can add massive value to the OTHER MEMBERS. Remember, you’re inviting people who are beyond you. They’re going to get a lot more value from the group and the other members than they are from you. Carefully select members who will get value from each other. Keep yourself out of the equation mentally.
6. Be the “hassle remover” for the group. Handle the schedule. Handle the details. Do the annoying administrative stuff that no one else wants to do. You be the one to set up the teleconference bridge meeting line, or the meeting space reservations. You be the one to walk next door and tell the neighbors to be quiet because they’re disturbing your meeting. You be the one to go out and get more drinks for the group because everyone is thirsty.
7. Remember, the value to you isn’t the tangible things you’re going to get. Don’t focus on material gain. What you’re going to get is the personal GROWTH that comes from being around evolved beings. Let the others have the perks and material rewards of the group. You sit back like the “dumb fox” and allow your mind to receive the higher-level transmissions that are coming from the others around you.

I would also encourage adding a project that the group can work together on.  Anything from a possible business to a humanitarian cause or any other creative idea the group can come up with.

Either way I can honestly say that not only has my perspective changed but all aspects of my life have been really growing ever since I have decided to start plugging myself in with higher level thinkers and movers…

What about you? Got any good ideas on this subject…or better yet do you share any concerns over joining and sharing with a group? Leave your thoughts and be specific whether it is for or against, try to leave some value behind that we can all consider….
