5 Benefits of Joining a Mastermind Group
By coachjanelee on Sep 27, 2010 in Audio, networking, Social networking
Hello Everyone:
I always look forward to participating in my mastermind group. Some of you are wondering what exactly is a mastermind?
The concept of Mastermind Group came from Napolean Hill and his book titled “Think & Grow Rich”.
The “Master Mind” may be defined as: “coordination of knowledge and effort, in a spirit of harmony, between two or more people, for the attainment of a definite purpose.”
Here are 5 reasons why you should join a mastermind group. Thinking of starting or forming one? Why not! There are so many benefits and advantages to being part of a mastermind group.
1) Group of like minded individuals with the same mission to succeed and their grow their business.
2) Supportive environment that meets on a regular consistant basis. Talk about a confidential, non-judgemental and a safe environment.
3) The group holds you accountable when you share your aspirations and provide updates of your progress from the last meeting. Talk about taking action!
4) The information exchanged from each of the members is simply priceless. Each member is as unique and diverse as the next member with their special talents and capabilities. In our group, some of the skills that are shared and disclosed are blogging, coaching, internet marketing, law of attraction, online & offline business, sales, speaking, teaching, and so much more. Each member can be at different levels of their business from novice, newbie, intermediate to expert. We all learn from one another.
5) The synergy that is held within the container. Everyone is united for the purpose of sharing and assisting one another to reach new heights in their success. It is simply amazing with the results seen down the road from one meeting to the next.
Have I convince you of the benefits of participating and joining a mastermind group. Mastermind groups are the latest buzz word everywhere you look. There are groups forming as we speak, and they are very easy to set up.

You’ve just said a mouthful about masterminds, Jane, and every word of it is GOLDEN! I’ve been in a group for just a short period of time and already the energies are flowing and members are starting to take actions to move their business forward. It’s amazing.
I think one aspect of masterminds that’s well worth mentioning is that they can contribute immensely to your personal growth.
Awesome post and Cinchcast!!

Hi Jane,
Great information about mastermind groups. I’ve been hearing about these groups a lot lately. Your five reasons are exactly things that I’ve been thinking about and wanting for the last few months.
What are your suggestions to find the right group?
I can see the benefits of a mastermind group. But my experience has not been really good. The group was not very organized and they got off on weird subjects so not much was accomplished.

I started a mastermind for coaches last year and it has been a huge success for me and the other members.
As a solo professional I think it’s very easy to feel isolated and think that you have to know everything and do everything yourself.
A mastermind gives you the shortcuts to success based on the experience, knowledge and insights of a group of peers (and friends)b who become committed to helping you to succeed.
