Finding Mastermind Group Members

Getting the right members in your Mastermind Group is one of the most important factors in launching a successful group. Every member who comes to our groups is first screened through a 1 on 1 interview process. After that they are invited to a meeting as a guest to see if they fit with the other members.

The CEOConsultant blog had an interesting post that brought up some suggestions for how to find the right Mastermind Group Members.

The books you read and the people you interact with most determine 90% of your success. So surround yourself with successful, positive people. Join a mastermind group. It can consist of like-minded individuals all around the country where you talk by phone once a week.

• Attend business and personal development seminars to find the right people.
  
• Who are the people you spend the most time with?
  
• What about their goals, values and priorities?
  
• Do they have any goals?!
  
• You are an average of the five people you spend the most time with.
  
• Try this exercise: Add up their yearly income and divide by five. Most likely your income is within 10% of that sum.
  
• You can spend time with people less successful than you and feel like a big fish, but as you discover your passion and climb the ladder of success, those same people will drag you down and discourage your dreams.
