Today’s Mandala Message: Consider Masterminding
This week I’m working through Principle #46 from Jack Canfield’s “The Success Principles” entitled “Mastermind Your Way to Success”. I set my intention today to ponder the idea of masterminding. Canfield states: “The basic philosophy of a mastermind group is that more can be achieved in less time when people work together. A mastermind group is made up of people who come together on a regular basis … to share ideas, thoughts, information, feedback, and resources. By getting the perspective, knowledge, experience, and resources of the others in the group, not only can you move beyond your own limited view of the world but you can also advance your own goals and projects more quickly.”
About 12-15 years ago I was in a local mastermind group. I found it helpful to a degree. I’ve come to realize that it would be more helpful for me to in a group that is more metaphysically and artistically based versus just strictly left-brain oriented…nothing wrong with left-brain focused groups…it’s just for me, I need the creative (right-brain) and spiritual components as well.
A good mindfulness practice would be to consider if masterminding is a good fit for you.
So how about you? Are you open to meeting with a small group of supportive people on a regular basis? Do you find bouncing off ideas with other people helpful? Do you know anybody who would be interested in participating in such a group with you?
