Here’s some info on a new mastermind group sent to me by my buddy, and one of bobsheartbeats “beeps” Sean McCarthy. Looks interesting, and I
have signed up.
You’ve heard the expression “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” This concept proves itself with the exponential power within the context of the mastermind group.
The Loveland Chamber and Commerce is now offering this valuable business forum to its membership as part of their investor services. Sean Mc Carthy, the founder of Colorado Coaching Company and facilitator of the new Chamber sponsored mastermind groups, describes the groups as a mix of peer advisory, accountability, and mentoring.
There is synergy of energy, commitment, and excitement that participants bring to a Mastermind Group. Participants often raise the bar by challenging & encouraging each other to create and implement goals, brainstorm ideas, offer new perspectives and support each other. Too often we get lost in our own daily tasks and miss the forest through all the trees. Regular participation in a mastermind group will help you keep a healthy perspective and remain focused on your goals and long term plans.
The idea of a mastermind was first communicated in Napoleon Hill’s timeless classic, Think and Grow Rich. Hill wrote, “No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a third mind.”
By teaming up with people that are outside of your immediate network you are able to gain new insights and see things you couldn’t otherwise see. These folks will have different experiences than you, and can offer new ways to handle issues that come up, and can help you by asking you great questions that help you discover the answers to get through those times you are stuck and in need of a breakthrough. And even more powerful is being that catalyst for growth for someone else. By sharing your experiences to benefit someone else’s business is one of the most empowering pieces of the mastermind experience.
The Chamber sponsored groups will meet regularly twice each month. For the next two months these meetings will be open to any business person that wishes to preview this new service being offered. For details and to RSVP contact Jim Worthen at 667-6311. Please don’t delay only 10 participants allowed per meeting.
