MASTERMIND MAGIC:
The Secret Weapon of Wealth

What is Masterminding?

Today Masterminding is an effective tool used throughout the centuries to bring about
is a solutions to challenges and problems through goal achieving and creative brainstorming.
great Masterminding is what happens when several people, in a spirit of harmony, tap
day into a creative source far more than the collective power of the ones present. Masterminding
is the power of plugging into each other, then watching the collective units create many
more solutions than they ever could on their own.
If I work on a goal or challenge by myself, I have a certain degree of creative power
to solve what needs solving. If I then ask you to join me and apply your creative power to

Since everyone in the Mastermind group is there to serve and give unconditionally to the
other people in the group, they willingly apply themselves to achieving his objectives.
The fisherman decides his objective is “to turn my fishing hobby into a profitable
business generating $600 profit per month within the next six months.” Having a clear

Millionairepicture of what he wants, the Mastermind group then could provide him with marketing
knowledge and specific contacts for clients or suppliers or partners. They might come up
