Mastermind Group Power

June 13 by 1 Comment

Last night I experienced the power of collaboration. Kris and I created a mastermind group and had our first meeting. We were inspired by the Power of Collaboration conference to use the mastermind concept first introduced by Napoleon Hill in the early 1900’s.

We brought together seven amazing people, who we trust, admire and respect. In the spirit of cooperative harmony, we made the commitment to share, give and receive. We will be each other’s personal board of directors. We will mastermind concepts, goals, intentions and actions. We will take turns collaborating for and with each other.

This our initial structure:

  • Create an intention for the meeting
  • Speak about what we feel gratitude towards
  • Figure out how much time each person will take to speak
  • Each Individual speaks and the group listens and brainstorms solutions
  • Conclusions, appreciations, etc…

Other Commitments

  • To make the process a holistic full-body experience
  • To use the yes and rule
  • To inspire each other to stretch and to expand what’s possible

The energy in the room was electrifying. I felt like anything is possible; and it is!

Change the Rules of the Game

June 8 by Leave a Comment

What’s the most important criteria to creating long lasting success in business? Don’t you love it when the answer is right in the question? Yes, it’s lasting a long time. Staying in the game is vital to your success in the game. Simple? But… what if…

No, it doesn’t mean that we have to stick it out at our own expense. It’s important to create a system of consistent course corrections. Just remember, if you allow yourself to change the rules of the game, you can stay in it longer. (Steroids are not allowed)

Now let’s play a quiz show game: What do these have in common?

The Rolling Stones
The Eagles
Elton John
U2
Paul McCartney

Success Tip #1

June 7 by Leave a Comment

Success Tip #1

  • Think of 3 things you love to do
  • Write them down
  • Create ways you can incorporate more of these things into your business

The last time I did this exercise for myself this is what I came up with:

  1. Write – started a blog
  2. Come up with new ideas – created an ideas document, separate from my To Do List (I call it a playlist) that I check every few weeks
  3. Watch Movies — came up with a list of movies with amazing spiritual lessons, that I will begin featuring in my blog and in my newsletter

Would you like to share your experience with following this tip?

The Zone of Genius

May 31 by Leave a Comment

The Zone of Genius what the? Yes, this is our G-spot of personal fulfillment. When we are in that zone, we are lost in the ecstasy of the experience. Time flies in fact, time ceases to exist.

Seth Godin writes that he can count on one hand the number of marketers he knows who get to do “Marketing” every day.

Marketers leave their Zone of Genius for their long list of things they do (budgets, coupons, projections, photo shoots, bizdev meetings, meet and greets, etc.) that is technically marketing–cause I think everything an organization does is marketing–but is hardly in the sweet spot.

This happens in our businesses all the time. As an example, I started a record label in 1995 because I loved music and wanted to produce. Yet I spent most of the time doing other things. I was out of my zone too much, wound up being burnt out and leaving the industry all together.

What is your Zone of Genius and how can you spend more time there?

Intention to Action to Success

May 29 by Leave a Comment

Today is as good of a day as any to create positive movement in my business. I will start with an intention:

Intention
I have a new Creative Entrepreneur Catalyst Program that attracts more clients that I can handle on my own.

I can feel the power of that intention. I am experiencing its inspiration propelling me to action. So what’s the next action step to take TODAY to move me closer to my intention?

Action
Craft an email to my ezine list asking my readers what is the one problem they would most like to solve for their business and/or their life.

I now feel good since I can write and get this email out in 15 minutes or less. I also know it will move me closer to my intention.

Result
The email is written and sent off to my virtual assistant to get out to my list. The answers will help me craft a better program since it will be based on what entrepreneurs really want and not what I think they want. It feels good.

*** Invitation ***
* Create an intention for your business
* Feel the power of it
* What is one simple action you can take to get your closer to your intention?
* Now do it

Share your results. BTW, I did this experiment in real time and got immediate value from it, so I wanted to post this and invite others to get value from it, too.

(Total time to post this entry, to set an intention, to figure out my action step and to take it — 20 minutes)

Competitors Unite

May 26 by 1 Comment

Seth Godin blogs about the positive power of competition.

As far as I can see it, the two most important benefits to competition are:

** Competition motivates our businesses to innovate
** Competitive forces simultaneously compete and conspire to create a movement that eventually drive more people to each competitor

Ex. Organic food movement, yoga movement, photo’s on-line movement, social networking movement

In China, I noticed whole city blocks devoted to a particular retail specialty. There was a bridal store street, a shoe street, a furniture street, etc… and they were all thriving.
