The Keys to Achieving Success With Your Mastermind Group

As humans we are programmed to imitate others. It has been said that we are the product of the 5 closest people to us. If you study any successful person you will find invariably that they have been associated with other success-minded individuals who assisted them to reach their goals - it is worth noting that the two richest men in the world: Bill Gates and Warren Buffet are close friends.

It follows that if you wish to achieve success in any discipline that you should surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share the same goals as yourself. Napoleon Hill, one of the foremost authors on success and acquiring riches defined some important rules regarding creating your mastermind - we will go over the most important.

1. Make sure each member of your mastermind has a Definite Major Purpose:

A definite major purpose is considered the most important aspect of creating success. It starts with a clear goal or vision of what you want to achieve. Each member of your mastermind must share this same vision so that every member will be working in harmony.

2. Expect to give as well as receive

Each member of the group should expect to give as well as be rewarded. This may be financial but could take on other forms of value as appropriate.

3. Ensure you have no "bad apples" in your group

Your group should consist of positive like-minded individuals any "bad apples" will bring down other members in the group and your overall achievement.

4. Ensure Harmony is maintained:

It is your job to make sure that your group is in harmony and alignment with its definite major purpose. By maintaining harmony the best decisions, actions and creations will flow from your mastermind group naturally.

The first step to creating your mastermind group is to clearly define your vision or purpose and then seek out individuals who will be able to assist you. Make use of the internet and phone to create your group - in the modern age you don't have to be in the same location.
