The Monday Mastermind started as an experiment, but has quickly has grown into one of my favorite 30 minutes slots of the week. Today's was well attended with 14 of us on there sharing our wins, losses, challenges & plans for the upcoming week.
Here's how it works, We do a round table for about 30 minutes,
- what did you do last week to get you closer to your goals,
- what are you going to do this week to get you closer to your goals,
- share wins, losses, challenges and we work through them together,
- share a quote that resonates with you,
That's it. Simple, yet powerful stuff.
The quote I shared today was one from the great Mark Twain;
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great"
To me, this one hits home. Over the years of starting businesses and taking losses and risks that don't make sense to many people, I was always being judged by those around me, my friends and even my family. They didn't understand the mission I was one, they questioned it, didn't believe in it, and even poked fun at it. Now, many of those same people come to me for advice.
Stray strong in the face of doubt and adversary & let's build something great together!
I hope to see more of you on the Monday Masterminds, they are becoming some of the best 30 mins on my calendar.
