MASTERMIND GROUPS: What Has Been Your Experience?
So this time last year I purchased one of @Brandon Turner’s intention journals. I did it for the opportunity to be placed into a mastermind group. I had heard of the mastermind group concept and I had studied up on the idea out of a hunger to surround myself with other people who where succeeding at a high level. I believe in the concept of iron sharpens iron and I wanted to sharpen my skills and continue to develop myself as a person and as a real estate investor.
Here is my review:
Meeting weekly via Zoom in a mastermind group over the past year has been a tremendous help in being accountable staying focused on goals. It was great in being able to bounce ideas off of one another and coach each other through difficult situations. It was insightful to see how when everything seemed to fall apart for someone one week, how everything came back together the next week (or sometimes the next month).
By being with a group, it made it seem like devastations weren’t that devastating as long as you could just ride it out. And it was defiantly helpful to get the support of the group while riding it out. Hearing each other’s weekly stories, the good and the bad, helped me improve my skills and knowledge through other people’s successes and failures rather than having to gain that knowledge though my own failures.
So this upcoming year, i encourage you to seek out others on the same path as you, about the same place on that path as you are, going in the same direction, and put together a mastermind group, and see how much more you can accomplish in 2020.
For those who have ever been involved in a mastermind group, what has been your experience?

preface: I now run my own mastermind group for established christian real estate investors.
But with that said the reason i started my own is because the power and speed that investing in my network up to this year has had on my business. Nothing has allowed me to grow my brand and business more than introductions that have happened from the other mastermind and mentorships ive been a part of.
and for example in our mastermind group I am seeing more deal flow and opportunities to invest than ever before because we have built a community with people of similar values sincerely trying to help each other out and wanting to partner!
