3 Reasons NOT to join a Mastermind Group

There are some very good reasons to not join a mastermind group. I'll share my 3 favorites with you.

1) You want to always be right - If you're only looking for validation that your ideas are good ones, then a mastermind group isn't for you. Expect that others will disagree with you about your ideas, in a constructive way. But if you need to ALWAYS be right, stay away from a mastermind group.

2) You're afraid to succeed - If success is something that scares you, then don't join a mastermind group. You're going to succeed in a mastermind group if you put the work into it to give status updates, to pick a group that supports your mission, and a group that has strengths different from yours.

3) You don't want to help others - If you're into being the "lone ranger" and don't want to help anyone else grow, then don't join a mastermind group.

Are any of these 3 going to keep me from joining a mastermind group? Absolutely not! In fact, I realize that I am wrong often, I look for success, and I love to help others.

So I'm still on the lookout for 1 good reason to prevent me from joining a mastermind group. Until I find it, I'll continue to be part of an amazing group of people that give me FAR MORE than they get.
