Your Mastermind Directors
Using your board of directors You will gain the most from your board of directors if
you are fully relaxed when you consult them, so it is always advisable to follow the
Standard Entry Exercise first. Enter your House on the Right Hemisphere, use your
shower and enter your boardroom in a couple of seconds if you need to consult your
directors urgently. I often do this in meetings or when I am giving a course and am
asked a question that I am unsure how to answer. I use my boardroom to ask my
directors for advice. I listen to what they have to say, then use this information to
form my own reply.
This again is your creative visualisation. You get to pick the people who you believe
can help you most overcoming your challenges, achieving your goals and reaching
the level of fulfilment you desire. From the earlier sections in this work, using your
core values to select goals and areas requiring improvements from your wheel of life,
select the individuals you believe, that in an ideal world would be best equipped to
help you.
I have been using my boardroom for many years, so I have collected quite a number
of directors by now. I have twelve permanent directors, and one who drops in from
time to time. My first woman director is a trusted friend. A second and third are also
women, Barbara De Angelis, a famous author and psychologist on love and
relationships, the other is Marianne Williamson who is the foremost authority,
speaker and author on spirituality. The first male director I chose was Steve Jobs
because I admired him so much. Next came Marcus Aurelius Roman emperor from
161 to 180 and a respected philosopher. Over the years I have added other people I
truly admire – Brian Tracy and Tony Robbins, both motivational goal setting plain
speaking gurus, Thomas Edison and Albert Einstein for their brilliant brains, Jay
Abraham for his consummate business mind and the brilliant Simon Sinek, a modern
source of inspiration and wealth of knowledge about anthropology and human
behaviour. The director who drops in every now and then, is the anarchic comedian
and actor Robin Williams who passed away in August 2014. He brings his unique
brand of humour to the experience. Between them my directors give me fantastic
advice, and knowing their works, I love visualising their conversations and banter. All
twelve need not be present for every CV and I have many substitutes in the wings
who bring their own area of expertise and character to the board meetings.
Summary
Establish which kind of thinking suits you best: visual, auditory or kinaesthetic. Use
visual, auditory or kinaesthetic decision making whenever you have to make instant
decisions. Create your board of directors. Remember, start with just one or two
people – and feel comfortable with whoever turns up! Ask your board of directors for
help and advice whenever you need it.
