Years ago, we had a wonderful Mastermind Group that met on a monthly basis to share Real Estate ideas. What was really exceptional about this group was that it didn't matter what company you were affiliated! Most of our ideas were about organizational items, what you were learning on the computer (which was basicly;"Here's how to turn it on!" ...this was quite a few years ago!), and here's a situation and here's how I handled it--- any other suggestions. We didn't eat breakfast, exchange referrals (we were all on this 10 mile long island together!), nor did we discuss company policies. We just shared ideas, knowledge, books, and empathy! For some unknown (or not remembered!) reason ,we eventually stopped meeting.
Last evening, I met with a member of the old Mastermind's group and we shared a bunch of new ideas, websites, books, and general island "news" (gossip?). What are great evening it was! Someone who's in-the-business, understands the present MARKET and is willing to share ,made all the difference in keeping an upbeat attitude. I'm excited about business!
So my questions are: Are there any Mastermind groups still working? What are their criteria? And would it be worthwhile to reactive the previous group, bringing in some "young lions" with their fresh ideas?
All suggestions appreciated!
