Mastermindism #61: No Stupid Questions-Just Stupid People!
November 11, 2008
There is no such thing as a Stupid Question…just Stupid People! Well, if you have properly screened your Mastermind Members before allowing them to join, you won’t have the problem of working with people that are at a low caliber. Therefore, you should encourage your members to not hold anything back! Whether it is an idea, a comment or question, never judge or criticize. What you may first see as a “stupid idea,” may spark something genius! It is all about letting the creativity flow freely and comfortably through the room and your members. With that in mind, never hesitate when something is on your mind for fear the group might judge you.

Mastermindism #37: Great Minds DON’T Think Alike!
November 9, 2008
Great Minds DON’T Think alike! A proper Mastermind will bring together great minds that let you see your business in a different light. Your fellow members will give you ideas and suggestions that you may have never considered before. The real trick is to keep an open mind and be willing to accept the suggestions of others, even if it is not what you want to hear.
Mastermindism #128: Communication Breakdown!
November 8, 2008
Being able to communicate quickly and easily with all of your Mastermind Members is vital. Your Mastermind can become a living, breathing thing if you keep it going outside of your meeting times. Use Google or Yahoo Groups and make sure mass e-mails are being sent daily. This is a support group. Call your members and check up on them & when they call you, be prepared to drop whatever you are doing to listen & help.
Other communication mediums include Gtalk, Instant Messenger and Skype (Video Chat!). Keep the creativity alive through Constant Contact. Don’t have a Communication Breakdown (you’re welcome Zeppelin fans!)
Mastermindism #79: Blog it up!
November 7, 2008
Hey! We all know blogging is cool & trendy, but FINALLY we have a reason to blog that can actually be useful & beneficial to you & your Mastermind. Create a Private Blog only accessible to you and your group where you post your ideas, thoughts, articles, videos, etc. Each member has access and should be encouraged to equally contribute. Your Private Blog will become the ultimate resource communication tool to keep the creative juices flowing while away from the group!
Mastermindism #267: No Friends Allowed!
November 4, 2008
Just because you get along with someone in a social arena, does not mean they are right for your Mastermind Group. A true Mastermind is not a Social Club, it is a serious support-group of like-minded individuals. A Mastermind depends on its members for success-don’t choose your drinking buddy! Like-minded, success-oriented individuals who will push you are ideal.
Our Mastermind-isms
November 4, 2008
This 6-month journey is just one big Learning Experience. Not only are we learning about Internet Marketing, our limitations, and building a business, but we are also figuring out how to successfully utilize the power of a MASTERMIND.
We have decided to dedicate a portion of our website to sharing with everyone a bit of our knowledge (as we learn it) on just exactly what is working to create this special dynamic in the group.
If you are not already apart of a Mastermind, we encourage you to either start or join one. We will continue to post our little words of wisdom (Mastermind-isms) as we go along this whole process. We hope that we can help you create and manage the most effective Mastermind as possible!
