Instant Recovery Formula for Any Business Challenge

Instant Recovery Formula for Any Business Challenge

If your sales or business is still in a spin from recession or economic whirlwinds it could be a death spiral or immediately recoverable depending on your technique, not the wind.

Not sure if you’re in a spin? You can quickly reality check your status with these three wakeup calls and then read on, or move on to advance most quickly. See if any of these statements fit or strike a chord in you.

• Resist change and die.

• Ignore market trends and your trajectory bends.

• Hesitate, procrastinate, or postulate too long and you’re lost.

Now consider what that means for you and I’ll share my instant recovery formula.

Here’s a list of symptoms that will reveal if the instant recovery formula I’m about to share will be of value to you. Take a look and consider each.

• You are working too hard, too many hours
• Limited inconsistent results
• working too hard
• not clear where to put time and energy
• competitors doing it but I get no results
• overwhelmed
• wondering what’s wrong with me that I can’t implement?
• Feeling alone and lost
• overscheduled
• work eyes bigger than action stomach
• scattered actions
• not much headway
• no life
• out of balance

Regardless of the challenge on the horizon today there is a way out now.

As an aerobatic pilot spin training is imperative for survival because one never knows when an error in a maneuver could throw the plan into a spin. There are several types of spins and recovery is easy with the ability to recognize the spin and apply the right techniques. The same applies to any situation we may face in business, and the same technique applies.

The universal spin recovery technique for most airplanes and the largestnumber of spin types is called PARE. PARE is an acronym for the control movements needed to bring the plane out of the spin and your business out of financial fall out. You’ll recover easily and gain renewed confidence meeting any challenge the future holds for you when you learn to use this technique instinctively. That means it will take some repetition to learn it first then you can call upon it whenever it is needed.

Controls used by the pilot are, Power, Aileron, Rudder and Elevator. Each has a parallel for us in business. Power in business is what you are concentrating your energy and focus on. Ailerons in business are strategies being implemented to turn your business into a particular direction. A Rudder in business is the directional movements you are making toward a goal or objective. Elevator control in business directs the vision of your goal to grow or go slow.

Here’s how it works. When you diagnose your business in a spin or facing a difficult challenge that could put you into a spin engage the PARE formula:

Pull Power              Stop what you are doing and do a reality check Assessment of your present situation.

Ailerons Neutral     Do not attempt to solve anything immediately. Listen.

Rudder Opposite  Noticing the direction you were turning or going when you realized something was wrong, turn 180% and push yourself into a definite action in the exact opposite direction.

Elevator Neutral    Do not attempt to climb directly back in the elevation of energy and activity previously engaged toward your  current goal. Instead cruise level with heightened sensitivity, intuitive sensors extended, seeking feedback from others opening the portals of your collaborative thinking mind.

Engage                 With your new flight plan or next level in view engage

The controls at your command to make the next move.

Once we recover to straight and level flight a relaxed and calm approach can be taken to go over all the information at hand and gather whatever else is needed to devise a new strategy, plan or team to build the new vision that is revealed to you. Then engage the plan. When your vision has cleared and your mind is on a new plane of thought with clear view of your next step, take it.

When you demand command you are in control. Keep in mind you are always in control whether you like it or not and the choices made every day are activating pressures on the controls of your life and business in ways known and unknown to you. Begin right now to develop your heightened situational awareness to help you guide your business and life upward toward success.

A spin is a great maneuver because it teaches us to remain calm in a very disorienting situation so we can recover in a new direction, but it takes a little while to get comfortable being uncomfortable. It is well worth the effort, however, because instead of dreading change we welcome it as a thrilling opportunity to learn and grow and advance more quickly than we could without it.

Now imprint the formula clearly in your mind. Discuss using it with your Master Mind group and see how you can challenge each other to use it.

PARE Spin Recovery

Pull Power back to assess your situation

Attempt no solutions yet, just neutralize control

Rudder & Redirect your attention 180% to stop inertia in present direction

Elevation changes can wait until a new vision comes into focus

Each step you take is further proof that you have command of your mind and body to direct it to work for you instead of against you. You can possess your mind. Possess your mind, command your life.

Once we follow these steps there need be no fear of falling into a spin again, because if we do we know how to recover and receive the guidance available to us to continue our flight to our destination. Perhaps more importantly practicing PARE can help us develop more skillful use of the controls at our command every day.

Enjoy your flight.

Learn to Break Through Without Breaking with The Master Mind

What is the most important topic in the world relative to our success?

The most important topic in the world relative to our success is clearing the pathway to success of anything that could keep us from winning success.

My 64 years of experience with this topic have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt there is only one thing that has ever held me back from winning any prize I sought to win – my own negativism.  It was self created, self generated and totally supported by the whole universe.

That’s it. There’s nothing else.

Some years back I wrote a list of The Top 70 Ways To Conquer Negativism to help others learn this valuable lesson and that is the basis of this article. To receive the whole list, simply follow instructions below.

The Wedding Song has a line which helps us learn to use the Master Mind. “It’s hard to believe in something you’ve never seen before,” goes the song.

We can see the brain, but not the mind, yet from our bodies to our bank accounts and the whole of the environment in which we dwell we see the productions of the mind all about us.

How does one learn to trust something we can’t see? How can we use that invisible something to face the great unknown today? How can we recover from unconscious negatives if they are not conscious?

Let me share the prime example this writer uses in coaching, and then I’ll deliver an exercise we can use to break through any challenge or negative experience in our present environment without breaking who we are. And, yes, the word is, “any”.

One of the things I love most about The Master Mind is that it is instantly accessible at any time and applicable to what is happening right now so I use it extensively in my coaching work trusting what it will do. In coaching it’s a must because we must respond to the moment fully present to who we are. What happens with this approach? Amazing insights surface, completely new designs applicable to real life challenges, and million dollar ideas strategies and plans are created through coaching session interaction for which clients praise me, but I tell them, “It’s The Third Mind working through the second mind we create together in our coaching alliance. It’s not just me, it’s we.”

Here’s an example.  A “C” level executive client in a fairly new job expressed concern about building momentum and keeping the vision alive beyond his first 90 days at the company. Some would call this the end of the honeymoon period. We had done extensive coaching work on applying the concepts in the book, “The First 90 Days,” and he had written and implemented an absolutely brilliant plan through his first three months to achieve some outstanding results. Still, he was concerned.

That still small voice from within me was moved as he described the situation. This suggestion came through me, “Why not create your Second 90 Days Plan?” He had never thought of that. “Brilliant,” he said. He did and the momentum he immediately enabled is living proof the honeymoon need never end. Now this wasn’t just another goal plan, it was a plan based on the concepts from the book he had developed his first plan from only now he elevated everything to the next higher level.

Someone said, “Problems are what we see when we take our minds off the goal.” Negativeism can set in when the mind is made idle, distracted, conofused or otherwise turned away from our purpose goal or objective. This is a discipline of the mind essential to success.

Walter Russell put it this way:

“The thinking of creative and successful men is never exerted in any direction other than that intended.” Walter. Russell

Applying the strategies in “The Top 70 Ways to Conquer Negativism” can not only help us stay focused on where we are going, it can help us develop our character and esteem and get there much faster with new insights and direction mapping out our course. So, the Master Mind Exercise this week is to pick one or more of the four ways described below and apply it to a specific situation. If there is no negative situation to attack apply it as a preventive measure to build up a stronger life affirming mind set for success.

Here are 4 from the list of 70:

1. Determine to not tolerate negativism. Andrew Carnegie offered PMA, a Positive Mental Attitude as one of the 18 Laws of success and found negativism so intolerable he fired anyone in his company who practiced it. Harsh? Perhaps. However, it has been determined even one negative person in a large company can have a negative effect on outcomes and mission completion.

16. Challenge your breaking point. We are doing things today we never dreamed could be possible for us five years ago. How did that Happen? We challenged our self beyond our breaking point emotionally, physically, or mentally in the growth or learning process. We can do that in any area at will to break through without breaking.

44. Replace one negative Television program with one positive book. Sounds, simple because it is. Try it.

66. Make only perfect mistakes. Worrying about making mistakes can lead to procrastination, so focus on progress not perfection. Every mistake we pay attention to and make adjustments from helps us make it more perfect. That’s the value of the daily debrief or reality check.

Some of these can become lifelong success habits, others become tools to be called on and used as needed like the hoe in the garage is used to dig up weeds. Anyone with a challenging amount of negativism to face, or even a little will benefit immensely from building a complete tool kit or arsenal of strategies and tactics from the list to access whenever the need occurs.

NOTE: To request a copy of the complete list simply send an e mail to Don@WingsOnDreams.com with, “The Top 70 Ways To Conquer Negativism,” in the subject line and it will be in your in box right away.

With the challenges being faced in the world today some people will want to go deep with this topic, so if that is you send an email to Support@WingsOnDreams.com and we’ll respond with our free talk schedule and our Master Mind Mastery group coaching schedule for your consideration.

Listen To The Tramp Who Heard The Third Mind

Let me introduce you to a one time tramp who may, if you are ready, help you out of your financial woes instantly.

Let us assume if you are reading this you are ready to make a major shift in mind, in life.

I’m going to relate a story to you from Napoleon Hill’s Laws of Success. It is a message from a street person, Dr. Hill and myself that is still very timely today given our current world economy.

This illustration is used because it is such a perfect illustration of how The Third Mind works and how I use it in my coaching and facilitation work to bring out the best in people to help them better their best to do what it takes to succeed, and because there are so many in need of the inspiration it will deliver to you now as you read and after.

Perhaps you think it is not possible to better your best. If that is true of you, read every word that follows because the power of this message is charged especially for you. I’ll let Napoleon tell the story in his own words.

“One day a tramp presented himself at my office and asked for an interview. As I looked up from my work and greeted him he said, ‘I have come to see the man who wrote this little book,’ as he removed from his pocket a copy of a book entitled Self-confidence, which I had written many years previously. ‘It must have been the hand of fate,’ he continued, ‘that slipped this book into my pocket yesterday afternoon, because I was about ready to go out there and punch a hole in Lake Michigan. I had about come to the conclusion that everything and everybody, including God, had it in for me until I read this book, and it gave me a new viewpoint and brought me the courage and the hope that sustained me through the night. I made up my mind that if I could see the man who wrote this book he could help me get on my feet again. Now, I am here and I would like to know what you can do for a man like me.”

NOTE: This man’s “knowing” from within moved him into action guiding him every step of the way. He acted on the “knowing” when he made up his mind. Remember that phrase, “made up his mind.”

“While he was speaking I had been studying him from head to foot, and I am frank to admit that down deep in my heart I did not believe there was anything I could do for him, ( the “knowing” speaks to Dr. Hill) but I did wish to tell him so. The glassy stare in his eyes, the lines of discouragement on his face, the posture of his body, the ten days’ growth of beard on his face, the nervous manner about this man all conveyed tome the impression that he was hopeless, but I did not have the heart to tell him so, therefore I asked him to sit down and tell me his whole story. I asked him to be perfectly frank and tell me, as nearly as possible; just what had brought him down to the ragged edge of life. I promised him that after I had heard his entire story I would then tell him whether or not I could be of service to him. He related his story, in lengthy detail, the sum and substance of which was this: He had invested his entire fortune in a small manufacturing business. When the world war began in 1914, it was impossible for him to get the raw materials necessary in the operation of his factory, and he therefore failed. The loss of his money brok his heart and so disturbed his mind that he left his wife and children and became a tramp. He had actually brooded over his loss until he had reached the point at which he was contemplating suicide.

After he had finished his story, I said to him: ‘I have listened to you with a great deal of interest, and I wish that there was something which I could do to help you, but there is absolutely nothing.’

Please notice his answer did not look at all the way he thought it would. This is often the case with guidance from The Third Mind.

“He became as pale as he will be when he is laid away in a coffin, and settled back in his chair and dropped his chin on his chest as much as to say, ‘That settles it.’ I waited for a few seconds, then said:

‘While there is nothing that I can do for you, there is a man in this building to whom I will introduce you, if you wish, who can help you regain your lost fortune and put you back on your feet again.’ These words had barely fallen from my lips when he jumped up, grabbed me by the hands and said, ‘For God’s sake lead me to this man.’

It was encouraging to note that he had asked this ‘for God’s sake.’ This indicated that there ws till a spark of hope within his breast, so I took him by the arm and led him out into the laboratory where my psychological tests in character analysis were conducted, and stood with him in front of what looked to be a curtain over the door. I pulled the curtain aside and uncovered a tall looking-glass in which he saw himself from head to foot. Pointing my finger at the glass I said:

‘There stands the man to whom I promised to introduce you. There is the only man in this world who can put you back on your feet again, and unless you sit down and become acquainted with that man, as you never became acquainted with him before, you might just as well go on over and punch a hole’ in lake Michigan, because you will be of no value to yourself or to the world until you know this man better.’

I’m very glad he said it just that way. To become acquainted with yourself, your true character, is at the very heart of our personal power, the pearl of great price in life and that truth which Andrew Carnegie pointed to as a prerequisite to engaging the principle of The Master Mind when he told us, “Any man wishing to engage the cooperation of the minds of other men in a Master Mind alliance usually begins by taking complete charge of his own mind.” Keep this in mind as you read on.

He stepped over to the glass, rubbed his hands over his bearded face, studied himself from head to foot for a few moments, then stepped back, dropped his head and began to weep. I knew that the lesson had been driven home, so I led him back to the elevator and sent him away. I never expected to see him again, and doubted that the lesson would be sufficient to help him regain his place in the world, because he seemed to be too far gone for redemption. He seemed to be not only down, but almost out.

A few days later I met this man on the street. His transformation had been so complete that I hardly recognized him. He was walking briskly, with his head tilted back. That old, shifting, nervous posture of his body was gone. He was dressed in new clothes from head to foot. He looked prosperous and he felt prosperous. He stopped me and related what had happened to bring about his rapid transformation from a state of abject failure to one of hope and promise.

‘I was just on my way to your office,’ he explained, ‘to bring you the good news. I went out the very day that I was in your office, a down-and-out tramp and despite my appearance I sold myself at a salary of $3,000.00 a year. (read $60,000.00 in 2009 dollars) Think of it, man, three thousand dollars a year! And my employer advanced me money enough with which to buy some new clothes, as you can see for yourself. He also advanced me some money to send home to my family, and I am once more on the road to success. It seems like a dream when I think  that only a few days ago I had lost hope and faith and courage, and was actually contemplating suicide.

‘I was coming to tell you that one of these days, when you are least expecting me. I will pay you another visit, and when I do I will be a successful man. I will bring with me a check, signed in blank and made payable to you, and you may fill in the amount because you have saved me from myself by introducing me to myself – that self which I never knew until you stood me in front of that looking-glass an pointed out the real me.’

Write that phrase down and post it on the wall before reading another line because there is a “real me” inside you also. Now hear the lesson the teacher received from the student. Most of us never hear of these, so I joyfully share this one.

As that man turned and departed in the crowded streets of Chicago I saw, for the first time in my life, what strength and power and possibility lie hidden in the mind of the man who has never discovered the value of Self-reliance. Then and there I made up my mind that I , too, would stand in front of that same looking-glass and point an accusing finger at myself for not having discovered the lesson which I had helped another to learn.

Friends watch out for this one. This is like when we try to remember a name and it doesn’t’ come right way so we say “I forgot.” Then later when the name comes to mind we say, “that’s the name I forgot.” Wrong, that’s the name you just remembered. Both are true, yet lets reinforce the truth we want to build. It’s a subtle negative self communication that can and does undermine people without awareness of it. Being aware we can correct ourselves and say, “Yes, I remembered.”

I did stand before that same looking-glass, and as I did so I then and there fixed in my mind, as my definite purpose in life, the determination to help men and women discover the forces that lie sleeping within them.”

The man who’s story Hill related later became President of one of the largest and most successful concerns of its kind in America at that tie with a business extending from coast to coast and from Canada to Mexico.

And, yes, that man did in fact make good on his promise to Napoleon returning a few years later with a signed blank check. Hill filled in the amount of $10,000.

Remember not so much from this story first the material demonstration but the action taken by the man in each instant when he made up his mind to take action. That is the secret to embracing your true character – listening to and following your own internal guidance mechanism.

Now cover the page below this line and answer without looking. So, did you get it? What was the principle in the looking-glass?

________________________________________________________________

Before I give you the principle remember the greatest value of the Synergy Success SPA comes to you when you learn to hear the story and identify the principle for yourself so you can apply it to your own life situation. So think about the story before you answer and before you look ahead to check your answer.

Okay, here it is:

Principle: You have within you right now exactly what you need to proceed from here to success. Recognize and embrace it. Take one step at a time.

Now how will you apply this principle this week?

When? _________________________________________________

Congratulations!

Now, like the tramp in the story make up your mind to never look back.

Want to Win? Access The Third Mind

Want to win? Access The Third Mind.

With what spirit does the spark of humanity resonate to win?

Why it is the love of life of course.

People accessing The Master Mind win more easily because their energy is higher, their character stronger, their enthusiasm evident everywhere shining through as the winning spirit radiating confidence.

The winning spirit was beautifully described in this sage advice from the late Elbert Hubbard. To become happier and more prosperous as a winner simply challenge yourself to learn to apply it.

“Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do, and then, without veering of direction, you will move straight to the goal. Keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding by, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the elements it needs. Picture in your mind the able, ernest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual… Thought is supreme. Preserve a right mental attitude – the attitude of courage, frankness and good cheer. To think rightly is to create. All things come through desire and every sincere prayer is answered. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed. Carry your chin in and the crown of your head high. We are gods in the chrysalis.”

Lovely words, you say. Nice philosophy, but how could I apply such noble ideas to my everyday life? It’s easy. Challenge yourself to apply it and watch this.

First realize you are more than you think. There is a depth within us all beckoning to surface. If you have asked the question your depth is ready to rise. Let me show you how to enable the rising at any time of your life your desire to become more of that something more calling you to better your best.

We’re going to break down that paragraph into chunks you can assimilate over the next fourteen days to let in the powerful message of The Third Mind in through your own experience. Ready?

DAY ONE: Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high and fill the lungs to the utmost; do it all day

DAY TWO: drink in the sunshine; every time you look at it or feel it

DAY THREE: greet your friends with a smile and put soul into every handclasp.

NOTE: On each of these days Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies.

DAY FOUR: fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do at the beginning of each hour, and then, without veering of direction, you will move straight to the goal.

DAY FIVE: For an entire day keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do,

DAY SIX: As the days go gliding by, pay attention as you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the elements it needs, your attraction power works for you.

DAY SEVEN: Picture in your mind the able, ernest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual… Thought is supreme. Take ten to sixty minutes to do this 2-3 times

DAY EIGHT THROUGH FOURTEEN: Preserve a right mental attitude – the attitude of courage, frankness and good cheer. Add four more actions to the list and do one per day. To think rightly is to create. All things come through desire and every sincere prayer is answered. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed. Carry your chin in and the crown of your head high. We are gods in the chrysalis, and our every thought is a prayer.

Now before we leave this page let us pull out our calendars and insert the above winning actions into the next fourteen days of our action plans. We’re all likely to astound ourselves with advances uncommon in the previous days of our lives. Be sure to come back and share results received so we may each inspire each other to win with joy more naturally.

Get Your Dream Out of Your Head Into Your Life With in 7 Master Mind Minutes

Get your dream out of your head into your life – The 7 Minute Dream Makers Guide to Happiness

It’s just not happening.

Dreams gather dust with my conference and training notes on the shelf.

It looked good, it sounded great, it felt marvelous. Still it’s not happening.

What happened?

For the full answer to the cause, the whys and wherefores of so many dreams that die from neglect request my special report, “Conference Magic – How To Let Your Conference Be Your Guide,” as for this article we’re going to focus on the no nonsense steps that will guide you into the happiness you deserve as you live the life well lived making your dreams reality.

The guidance you are about to receive is simple, straight forward and the most  powerful practice you will ever engage, yet the only way you will know that to be true is through an unwavering commitment to follow through beginning right now today.

This is my highly acclaimed 7 Minute Master Mind Strategy designed to access your inner wisdom, bring forth your genius and enhance your dream makers qualities and guidance to the happiness most desired and deserved.

RECOMMENDATION: You can use any process that works for you to implement this practice and install it as a habit. Put yourself on a 30 day plan, a 60 day plan a 90 day plan or whatever model works for you. If you don’t want to go it alone send and e mail request with, ”Master Mind 100 Day Program,” in the subject line and I’ll send you free description and directions on how to focus yourself for 100 days to breakthrough to the next level. Send to Don@WingsOnDreams.com  

NOTE: This process works best if you have a Master Mind support group you can share ideas with along the way for feedback.

Getting to your self esteem, your own self image, your issues with procrastination, fears, habits and anything else that has stood in your way to dream manifestation would take months, possibly years to fully explore, understand and apply to your advantage. However, one habit engaged immediately, persisted in consistently as if your life – more specifically the life of your dream – depended on it will enable you to move most swiftly to the coveted prize of your dream fulfilled and your life well lived.

Here it is.

1. Make up your mind to pay the price for success dedicating 30-60 minutes time to pay attention to your dream 4-7 days a week and block this time on your calendar right now.
2. When the time comes on the first day write a list of all the topics you must address to realize your dream. The list will likely be 10 or more.
3. On day 2 and every day thereafter dedicate 7 minutes at a time during your 30-60 minute block to  crystallize your vision with this process. On this second day look one at a time at each of your topics and write 10 questions that need to be answered about that. Focus 7 minutes on each every day until complete.
4. With your questions lists complete now dedicate each 7 minutes to a flow writing exercise. Read one question, check the clock and immediately begin writing whatever comes to mind about that for the next 7 minutes. Take a break, then to the next one. Take a break then stretch, walk, relax and do the next one continue like this for the entire 30-60 minutes each day.

This is the beginning. Generating ideas is first. Actually they’re already there, we’re pulling them out of your head so you can see them.

As this exercise is used every day the mind will become a magnet for ideas relative to the dream purpose pursued. We synergize our thinking processes when we heighten awareness and focus attention and interact harmoniously with like minded people.

Next is action which we’ll begin to address with our next post.

Happy Landings,

Master Mind Dynamics – Portal to transformational wisdom through group intelligence

One of the best practices of my family experience as a teenager remains strong and clear and fresh in my mind – Family Meetings.

Recollections of meetings shout anticipation, excitement, fear, intimidation, challenge, communication, disappointment, failure, frustration and success, fun, enthusiasm, much like any competition. Little did I realize then the power of group intelligence to teach me about myself, point me to know exactly what I need to succeed, and the awakening from the delusions of mind harbored by ego, so naturally entwined into the composition of the human character as we know it. Pursuit of understanding of The Master Mind Principle of group dynamics leads ultimately to the discovery of one’s true self.

Before the discovery of The Master Mind Principle only the great mystics throughout the ages such as Buddha, Jesus, and Gandhi have been able to uncover and access their true power and potential of higher being. With this principle the power and presence of integrity with our highest being is more available to all.

Regardless of who we think we are, we are more than we think.

The 90% of our intelligence not in use is the measure of our potential and the key that opens that door is our relationship skills at the level of synergy. Behind these doors anyone can find intuitive faculties, creative imagination and new visions in life akin to the sculptor viewing the stone or the painters mindset when s/he views an empty canvas.

Master Mind is the principle that activates the concept of synergy making the whole greater than the sum of its parts. The challenges on the pathway to reaching this level, however, are not insignificant, and not to be entertained by the faint hearted pursuer of truth.

But before we go any further it is imperative that a gross mis understanding be clarified. Because of the way Napoleon Hill popularized Andrew Carnegie’s description of the characteristics of a group of people with the ability to access the third mind everyone functioning under his definition believes the master mind is the group when in fact that is not true. The Master Mind is the source mind of universal intelligence. The Master Mind Principle of The Third Mind which is accessible when the conditions of perfect harmony and commitment to a definite purpose exist in a group of people may be applied by any individual in the presence of other individuals whether or not the other people are aware of the principle. People applying The Master Mind Principle are capable of accessing that Third Mind in virtually any group, as well as alone in quiet contemplation through their Master Mind Mindset. It’s a different way of thinking on a different level of thought vibration which gives one direct access to knowing. Andrew Carnegie emphasized the necessary prerequisite to accessing The Master Mind which most people miss: You must take possession of your own mind. This is a great challenge.

The book, Think and Grow Rich is a classic example of the courage required to master our fate, and become captain of our soul. Surveys indicate the vast majority of the millions of people who purchase this book, which is said to be second in sales only to the bible, never read it. Why? Look in it and you’ll see. It is filled with self assessments and opportunities for introspection and reflection on who we are being in life as the prime directive to wealth building or success in any form.

To me that means integrity with my true self. What does it mean to you?

Let me illustrate by helping everyone answer a primary question in forming a Master Mind Support group. “Who should I look for to form a Master Mind group?” Purpose is the primary consideration in answering this question, and here are 11 qualities gathered from the mind of Andrew Carnegie, and Napoleon Hill in their writings, and from my hands-on work coaching people in Master Mind support groups:

1. Loyalty
2. Dependability
3. Ability in some area of expertise
4. PMA a Positive Mental Attitude
5. Willingness to Go The Extra Mile
6. Confidence in faith
7. Sincerity of purpose
8. Sincere desire for others to succeed
9. Vision
10. Courage

Dare to do this and you’ll get an idea of what makes a personal support group Master Mind so rare and powerful. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being highest rate yourself on each quality listed above.

Incidentally, the number one principle of success is not desire as Napoleon Hill stated, and so many have quoted, but The Master Mind, as Andrew Carnegie stated, because no one has ever achieved any success in any form without other people, and because a chief aim or desire is essential to access the wisdom of higher intelligence of The Third Mind known as The Master Mind, and because no single mind is complete without harmonious interaction with other minds. The principle, however, has been grossly misunderstood.

The Master Mind is a universal principle of intelligence giving one access to the minds of other people including the collective intelligence of humanity, access to our own higher intelligence, and a direct link to universal source intelligence which activates the reality of synergy making the whole of us greater than we think.

Access to our Higher Self is available almost instantly in the presence of the right group, but unless you have developed a Master Mind Mindset you’ll not be able to maintain it. Access to the true Master Mind is evidenced by an ongoing relationship with your own wisdom.

Success habits producing a superior creative advantage over those unfamiliar with the group dynamics of The Master Mind Principle are essential to building a Master Mind Mindset. Do the qualities assessment and begin looking for these in other people coming into your life and embrace the future steps outlined to embark on your journey into the good life you seek.

Rules are made to be:

A. Followed

B. Broken

C. Ignored

D. Worshiped

E. Carved in stone

We see them everywhere. Mom has the list on the refrigerator. Dad posted our personal list behind the bedroom door. School teachers promote rules for everything. The church gives us rules to live by. The first thing we learn at work is the rules. And every game we play from marbles to hopscotch to football, baseball and The Apprentice we are taught to follow the rules.

So, what do we usually do with them?

What could, should, would we do with them if we fully understood the purpose behind each one?

We know genius goes beyond the rules. Case in point, Michael Jackson. Many fear the creative genius of imagination for lack of understanding, yet consider the possibilities that could come with understanding and use.

A master mind group is not a Master Mind – What is?

Barring a sabbatical away from work in a monastery, or forty days and forty nights on a mountain top in meditation, the shortest path I have found is formation of a Master Mind Support Group to support me in taking possession of my own mind and building plans for my purpose and the purpose of the group.

Please note I said shortest, not easy or quick fix. It takes a special integrity of character including 11 character qualities to perform well in a true Master Mind. First an important distinction, then we’ll unwrap an initial alliance plan.

It looked like a failure was imminent.

Art Linkletter’s recollection of the moment is quoted in, “How To Be Like Walt,” by Pat Williams thus: “I was there as an entertainer, not a broadcaster,” he recalled, “but CBS pressed me into service and I went on the air.

Successful entrepreneurs and executives have learned to recognize and remove them, even to use them to accelerate their growth and multiply their productivity. Of course the most successful ones have learned to access and use the power of The Master Mind Principle for this purpose.

Remember the old motivator’s story about the flea trainer imposing limits on how high a flea could jump? They put an invisible lid over the fleas who could normally jump 3’ in the air and after hitting the six inch high ceiling over time adjusted their jump height to that level. Then they could remove the invisible lid and the fleas would jump no higher than 6” because they
