The Mastermind Habit

I was traveling during the appointment time for my regular weekly mastermind meeting last week. It wasn't practical for me to join in via cell phone on our weekly teleconference. Good things were happening last week in my business and I was disappointed that I'd have to miss out on the conversation and report on my positive progress.

It was then that it hit me that a mastermind group meeting becomes a habit.

And it's a good habit.

Failure reports are offset by success reports and business balance is maintained with depressing thoughts being replaced with enthusiastic thoughts. It's easy for the self employed, especially solopreneurs, to become blind about direction and mired in negativity without some outside opinion and contact. Mastermind groups help solve the problem especially when they meet regularly out of good habit.
