“Create a definite plan for carrying out your desire and begin at once, whether you ready or not, to put this plan into action.” ~ Napoleon Hill
Since the publication of Think and Grow Rich in the 1937, the idea of mastermind groups has grown and evolved to become a must have tool of successful individuals.
The benefits of having a supportive mastermind group are many…
You have a group of people available to offer SUPPORT to help you succeed…
A MasterMind group offers a safe environment for you to share your dreams and discuss your challenges. Each meeting allows all participants to interactively share and get ideas from fellow members. This allows you to express new ideas you have to your MasterMind group and get valuable feedback.
The group encourages you to grow and reach your goals much faster than if you go it alone.
You get the benefit of differing perspectives, input and feedback….
When you join a MasterMind Group you will gain from the expertise of others. The members of the groups each come with their own knowledge and experience in certain areas, which allows you to obtain information that may be a struggle to obtain. It also allows you to help others with areas in which you are an expert.
Your Mastermind team can bring resources and connections to the table you might not have had on your own….
When you join a Master Mind Group and Network, you will meet amazing and creative people who can add value to your personal and business life. The people you meet in your group can become lifelong friends as well as future business partners. Colleagues may be able to introduce you to other entrepreneurs who are interested in doing joint ventures with you.
You receive accountability and inspiration from the group, enabling you to maintain focus on achieving your goals.
It can be easy to get side tracked with everyday life in addition to your daily routine business responsibilities that may prevent you from taking the daily action steps you need to grow your business.
When you belong to a Master Mind Group, you will be held accountable to take action and to provide updates of your progress. You are also expected to attend the weekly calls. When you know you have to report your progress, it motivates you to perform the required action, which will move you closer to achieving your goals.
There are many other reasons that you may want to join a Master Mind Group. It may help you to remain focused, it may be to meet like-minded people or it could be just to learn and grow. Whatever your own personal reason, the group will allow you to connect with people that can help you succeed.
Miracle of the Mastermind
The Mastermind process was discovered over 100 years ago by the richest man in the world, Andrew Carnegie. He boasted that he could put one of his teams anywhere in the world and they would be successful. Carnegie learned that by bringing like minded individuals together for the achievement of common goals, they could accomplish anything regardless of the challenges. An effective MasterMind group allows members of a program to achieve success five times faster than on their own. That’s because you can learn from the collective knowledge of your other group members.
A miracle occurs when the same six or more people get together every week. They meet in a safe haven for creativity and shared learning. Each member supports and encourages each other to achieve the goal of their own choosing. The meetings are hosted by a leader who guides the lesson and permits equal opportunities for each participant to contribute to the conversation. The magic begins when all members start working together to achieve their dreams. It cannot be described- it can only be experienced.
The right program adheres to a set of ethical guidelines which require a positive and constructive tone at all times. To further strengthen the bonds between members of the group, each person is paired up with an accountability partner. The pace is flexible, and the application of principles can be adapted to each individual’s unique style of learning.
You don’t have to try to make it happen all alone. In fact, working alone almost never works. You need the support of people around you. You need to surround yourself with the right people!
Imagine a powerful group of entrepreneurs gathering with you every week online to help you stay focused and constantly moving toward your dreams. Being involved in a mastermind group gives you the power of the pack…..You Are No Longer The Lone Wolf! Let the pack watch your back!
Now, you have the chance to Experience the Power of a Mastermind Group!

Why should I Listen-In To a MasterMind Call?
For those that attend the webinar LIVE, you will have the chance to interact. But, the goal of the Listen-In approach is to introduce people to the power of the “interactive MasterMind” and the dynamics and synergy created when a group of like minded individuals come together for the greater good.
There are many people out there that have never attended or been part of a MasterMind call and have no idea of the POWER and POTENTIAL.
When YOU hear the success lessons of Napoleon Hill and “Think and Grow Rich” and part of the curriculum that includes 110 of the very best elements of Hill’s body of work, you will start to see how it can effect your OWN life and see yourself participating.
Sometimes potential participants like the idea of being able to just Listen-In to get a feel for what it is all about in a non-threatening way…

Thanks for highlighting the amazing mastermind process marc and Mr. Hill’s book. I need to reread it! Amazing that we are returning to ideas from the late 30′s. He knew the score. The collective energy really works! Am in a small on-line one and it’s great!

@Jeffrey Sooey,
Hi Jeffrey,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
Yes, Napoleon Hill certainly knew the score on this one and his work is such an inspiration to the masses. With all the economic issues that we are faced with daily and other Global issues, it is refreshing to go back to the Success Principles that were so prevalent and will be again.
I start counting the days to my next Mastermind session the moment the current one ends…so inspiring and empowering…
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc,
Mastermind groups are great for people who are serious about building a wealthy, strong, healthy, and thriving life and want to feel supported.
Many people will often get things done because someone else is counting on them. Somehow, when we make a commitment to someone else, it is easy to take action and follow through. Yet when left on our own, we tend to get distracted or fritter away our time.
The right kind of mastermind group will challenge you to be bold and authentic, challenge to you step up and step out and challenge you to achieve more than you thought you could because you know you have unquestioning support behind you.
@Rachel Lavern,
Hi Rachel,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
I love the way you expressed your thoughts on the Mastermind…perfectly stated.
The accountability factor is such an important ingredient in helping everyone to achieve more and to have a safe venue where you feel secure and supported can really get those creative juices flowing.
The nice thing is that it doesn’t matter what your individual goals are, the synergy and support will help everyone to achieve their own personal goals.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc!
I think that the power of mastermind team up would be a great help to many online marketers to become successful. They will help each other to share commissions from the product they will be able to sell and advertise. Many people are very practical in finding ways to make money and become successful easily. You must bear in mind to know the masterminds of the event you wanted to join.

Hi Tracy Ann,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
A MasterMind group will definitely help many online marketers in addition to traditional workers in any Industry or career that they are involved in.
I agree that it is very important to know the Facilitators of the MasterMind that you want to join. You want to make sure you join a group that is aligned with your values and that can help you to succeed.
To your success,
Marc
Hello Marc,
I thought I’m the only one who believe that brainstorming, group stuff really helps. Even though i’m don’t trust these techniques to much they start to gain my trust step by step. I just know find out how great is to have more and more friends, online and offline.
@Radu,
Hi Radu,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
MasterMinds are great for brainstorming. Of course, different groups will have different agendas, but the ones that allow you to hone your skills and develop a success mindset and that offer real accountability and support can’t be beat.
It’s great to have more and more friends online and offline, but the MasterMind offers much more than just friendship and allows you to set and reach your goals in a dynamic way and will keep you focused and on task and motivated.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc,
Sensational points about the benefits of masterminding.
Carnegie did not become one of the wealthiest people in history by accident. He knew the power of the mastermind, of putting together many minds to create an all powerful force. Team work helps you work less and get better results. Sure you need to work, but when partnering with other creative minds you are exposed to ideas that you wouldn’t have thought of otherwise.
Thanks!
Ryan

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for the great feedback…
It is amazing that the teachings of great minds like Carnegie and Napoleon Hill have endured for so many years and are still studied today in so many organizations.
It is the quickest way to success when you can leverage the talents of like minded partners in a true partnership and the group can “harmonically cooperate” in manifesting each other’s goals..
To your continued success,
Marc
I have actual been a part of a couple mastermind groups over the last two years and have found them to be great resources. In my internet marketing mastermind group I learned much of the SEO techniques that I teach today. I also learned much about lead generation and content optimization.
I still haven’t found a good mastermind group to talk with other network marketers who are succeeding online but I am sure one is out there. Thank you for this post Marc, I shared it on Facebook to help illustrate why Masterminds are important.

Hi Clint,

Welcome to my blog and I hope you will visit often.
Once you join a Mastermind, you can see the difference in the results that you achieve in a fraction of the time.
It’s great that you have found MasterMind groups to be an asset to you. There are many groups out there that are structured for Internet marketing or network marketing, but the common thread is that they will help you develop a success mindset and achieve your goals.
I am fortunate to be a part of 2 groups, one with my business partners that are successful in Network marketing and one that is based on Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success.
To your continued success,
Marc
Great article Marc. I’ve had the privilege of participating several mastermind groups over the years so I wholeheartedly agree with the benefits. And as far as the teachings of Napoleon Hill – I never get tired of revisiting his work. In fact I subscribe to the foundation and receive weekly articles – just this morning I received the latest edition on Self Expression and Recognition and the meaning of self-actualization. Mind bending stuff.
@marquita herald,
Hi Marty,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
That’s so great that you have had such positive results from the MasterMind experience.
I am thrilled that I am able to grow based on the teachings of legends like Napoleon Hill.
One of the groups I belong to is based on Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success.
What is really exciting is that Hill commissioned Rick Gettle to teach, improve and expand upon his principles. Gettle taught the course in person to over 6,000 groups worldwide before finding Mastermind to Personal Power. (the group I belong to)
After forty years of carrying on Napoleon Hill’s legacy, Rick Gettle joined forces with Mastermind to Personal Power as Vice President of Curriculum in order to bring these proven principles to the world.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hey Marc, excellent post.
Having a mastermind group can help a lot of businesses share experiences and answer each others questions.
One problem though, and you see it a lot online, is that people use mastermind groups as a front to recruit, which defeats the purpose.
Good stuff.
Peter
@Peter Fuller MBA,
Hi Peter,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
I’m happy that you enjoyed the post…MasterMind groups help a lot of businesses and individuals by providing information that would be hard to come by without the power of the collective group.
I also know of some of the groups you are referring to that use it as a front to recruit. But, they still offer the value of the MasterMind and members can still benefit greatly.
What I love about my group is that we bring together incredible individuals to learn, understand and apply the success principles based on Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success.
For those that are fans of Carnegie, Hill and Personal Development and the MasterMind concept … this platform can become your OWN Internet business, so you can bring these success principles to the world and also help many people to create their own economic stimulus package at the same time.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc:
You have done a great job explaining the importance of being a member of a mastermind group. When I first got started online I did join a mastermind group and it helped me so much with my marketing. Like you said not only do you have a mentor and an accountability program in place but you get to learn from other members of the group. Joining a mastermind group is one investment I never regret. It was definitely a smart move. I am sure lots of people will find it helpful too.
@Liz K :,
Hi Liz,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
It’s great that you were able to plug into a MasterMind group early in your online career.
You have countless resources all within this one group which can make so much difference in your career and your life.
To your continued success,
Marc
I love the power of the mastermind! I currently belong to a mastermind of business owners who are all using Infusionsoft. What a wonderfully powerful group. I definitely believe I am getting ahead 5 times faster and we only meet once per month, virtually.
Although a few us get together a little more often than that using all the great social media platforms!
@Carla McNeil, Social Media Manager,
Hi Carla,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
You are so right…the MasterMind IS Powerful and there are so many different groups and their work might be based on different subjects, but the bottom line is that they are all groups of individuals coming together collectively for the greater good and to help and support one another.
My group meets once a week and it is ALWAYS empowering and enlightening.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc,
This is the second article I’ve read this week on Mastermind Groups. Your post is excellent and covers every aspect of Mastermind membership. I personally am a member of two different Mastermind Groups. Both are very effective.
“An effective Mastermind group allows members of a program to achieve success five times faster than on their own. That’s because you can learn from the collective knowledge of your other group members.”
You listed 4 benefits of being a Mastermind member:
You have a group of people available to offer SUPPORT to help you succeed…
You get the benefit of differing perspectives, input and feedback….
Your Mastermind team can bring resources and connections to the table you might not have had on your own….
You receive accountability and inspiration from the group, enabling you to maintain focus on achieving your goals.
I really like the approach of allowing people to participate in a Listen In mode to introduce them to the synergy found in a Mastermind group.
Thanks Marc,
Raena Lynn
@Raena Lynn,
Hi Raena,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
I am also a member of 2 different mastermind groups and the agendas are different, but both very effective. Depending upon your area of study and concentration within any given group, so much can be learned from all the members and accelerate the learning curve dramatically.
I love the Listen-In mode, because there are so many people that haven’t experienced the power and synergy of a MasterMInd and this way they can be exposed in a very non threatening way and reap the rewards and see if it is a format that is right for them.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hi Marc! I didn’t know the history of a mastermind group. Now it all makes sense. I’ve been in several and they work great. I also began my success journey by reading Naoleon Hill a long time ago. It’s a book that I keep reading. Masterminding has so many benefits from the group. I have certainly learned so much every time I was in one.
Thanks Marc for posting this,
Donna
@Donna Merrill,
Hi Donna,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
I’m happy to hear that your experience with MasterMind groups has always been such a rewarding one.
It is amazing how many people continue to read, learn from and achieve success from the work of Napoleon Hill.
Before Hill died in 1970, Hill commissioned Rick Gettle to teach, improve and expand upon his principles and it is so exciting that Rick Gettle is the Vice President of Curriculum for the group I belong to.
To your continued success,
Marc
I agree wholeheartedly! The feeling I get in my mastermind group, is that the sum is greater than the number of participants. I’ve heard so many people say they read Think and Grow Rich years ago, and didn’t get a thing out of it. Then they joined a mastermind group, and suddenly the book opened up to them like never before.

@Willena Flewelling,
Hi Willena,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
Boy, I couldn’t agree more…I have heard that many times myself and it is totally understandable about all the people that read Think and Grow Rich and it just didn’t resonate with them
.
It is amazing when you take each chapter and break it down along with other success principles and analyze it in a dynamic group setting how it can take on new meaning.
To your continued success,
Marc
Hello Marc
Mastermind powers help one to achieve their goals. As you describe members of the groups each come with their own knowledge and experience in certain areas, which allows you to obtain information that may be a struggle to obtain. I think the men in Andrew Carnegie’s early group were not all from the same business, One of the keys as demonstrated by Gandhi, is inducing people to coordinate, with mind and body, in a spirit of harmony for a definite purpose.
Thanks

@Perry A Davis Jr @Network Marketing Nut and Bolts that make building your business Fun, Simple, Magical and Profitable.s,
Hi Perry,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
Very well said and very true…In my Mastermind, the work is based on Napoleon Hill’s Law of Success. The people who join the MasterMind group study and learn the principles behind “The Science of Consciousness”. The group learns to “harmonically cooperate” in manifesting each other’s goals.
So, your comment.. “Gandhi, is inducing people to coordinate with mind and body, in a spirit of harmony for a definite purpose.” is right on point.
To your continued success,
Marc
So Marc, I think by joining this, you’ll get many benefits. Such as more ideas, you can learn much more from the others, as you can also share knowledge with them too. It’s a very good thing to join that kind of group you know. Thanks for sharing this with us.
@Jake Black,
Hi Jake,

Hi Marc,
Congratulations on being part of the Mastermind to Personal Power group – are you working with Ron Stebelton? You probably know I am very positive about MM groups and was part of the initial MMTPP group last year. I moved on to start my own non-profit initiative. I have had several groups form. I do find that each group has its own energy that lasts just as long as it is meant to. Some of my greatest relationships have come from my mastermind groups and I have learned much and been supported through personal highs and lows.
Best Wishes,
Clare
@clare@optimalcellhealth,
Hi Clare,
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving your comment…it is greatly appreciated.
Yes, I am in Ron’s Thursday group and it is amazing and empowering. I know you are very pro MasterMind groups, but I wasn’t aware that you were part of the initial group.
I have seen testimonials that you and Ron have given each other…it is a real mutual admiration society.
The support from MasterMind groups is wonderful and when all participants are accountable and contributing, magic can happen.
It is very authentic with no hidden agendas and so much can be learned.
To your continued success,
Marc
Marc,
Great Great Post on the power of the mastermind group and what it can do for all of our lives.
To me, the mastermind group unleashes the power of synergistic thinking.
I know that it is the game changer to seeing everyone of us achieve that chief aim.
I look forward to our weekly session, it truly is great to connect with you and our mastermind group.
Your Partner in Success,
James
This is some wonderful information on mastermind groups. Funny thing is, I’m creating one now so this post is timely.
I’ve often wondered the importance of a mastermind, but one of my mentors Mr Greg S Reid also of the Napoleon Hill Foundation, has counseled me in the assets of having like minds come together to create a synergy of success!!
Thank you Marc
