A couple episodes back I was actually talking about how I
Met my friend and we were we hung out all the time and then we slowly decided to stop hanging out as much on purpose and
Until it got to the point where now we're only hanging out once a month at least and
It's probably not even gonna be once a month in the future
It's probably me like once every three months or once a year even and
And the thing is that we are
like we hang out once a
month now
just for a specific reason and
We actually have another friend who's on a similar path to us who we hang out with as well
during this time and this is for a mastermind and a mastermind is basically when like-minded individuals
congregate together and
basically hang out like they they're basically spending time together in an intentional matter
talking about
their goals or
Not even their goals, but talking about
What they're doing and they're basically helping each other out with their problems and they're in a state of
harmonious connection which basically means that everyone is
Happy with each other and there's no bad blood basically means that everyone is
friends and they're happy to see each other and be around each other and so
Once you're in this state of harmony, then you
Basically create this third mind or in my case since we have three members of the mastermind
We create this fourth mind which basically is when all of our minds
combine and create this fourth mind that
oversees us all and
we can all
tap into that power source and
gain information from it and gain epiphanies and intuitions
Which is very valuable because
Even if everyone goes to the mastermind and they don't have the solutions
The solutions will probably still flow out of our mouths
Because we're in a state of flow when we're explaining things to each other
And then the right solution will come out because we're connected to that power source and some people call that power source God
Jesus the Buddha whatever it may be
But other people call it just the mastermind though. There's lots of different names for it, but
That power source basically helps you
Help them and it also creates new sparks in yourself
So there's lots of benefits to the mastermind, but in this recent mastermind
We discussed many things and we like one way we structure the matchmind is
Each of us comes with a problem that we're experiencing at the moment
So for example, let's say you're addicted to something or you are wasting your time or you
Even problems that you don't know the solution to for example, for example
You don't know what you should be working on
There's many different problems that we came like that came to the table during this past mastermind, but I'm not gonna get into it
But what you need to know is you should structure your masterminds in such a way where every
Individual comes with something they want to have solved every individual comes with a purpose
So for example, one of my purposes for the mastermind the most recent one was to come up with video ideas and one of the video ideas
That I came up with was to delete your social media account
Which I recorded on a past episode already which you can go check out
but
Come up with video ideas that that was my purpose for the mastermind
so every individual should have a purpose and a
Problem that they want solved and so basically the way you structure the mastermind is you
You walk around for maybe 10 to 15 minutes just hanging out and this is just to warm up
Because at first your minds are not gonna be in an instant state of harmony
It takes maybe 10 to 15 minutes to actually warm up to each other and become harmonized
So then after about 15 minutes and it doesn't have to be exact just warm up
And then eventually once you get once you think about it start to talk about your problems
And then each person goes around and they get the school they basically get the mic for that time so they
you this person talks and says their problems and
then
We spend the entire time all of our energy and effort on that one person and that one person's problems
Until they're satisfied with the end this may take 10 minutes. This may take an hour and then
Once this person is completed
Then we switch basically okay, so let's say person one is
The one with the problems initially. He's the first person
Then person two and three take turns speaking on
things on basically solutions and then eventually the best solution will pop out and
then
At and then it switches so then person two is the person that explains their problems and then everyone else helps
fix them or
Give a solution and then they switch the next person and so on so forth until everyone is done and they're satisfied with their problems
And then you can still talk more or whatever and then at the end you summarize
So what I do is I bring a notebook and throughout the whole time I talk or I take notes
I actually write down all the things that I
Learned or that I want to take action on and implement
And so at the end everyone basically summarizes the things that they took home and they're gonna like they basically learned and
that gives another chance for recap and for people to
Basically come up with more ideas, but that's basically the mastermind and it shouldn't be done all the time
like I said in the past episode I did a mastermind pretty much every single day with my friend over summer and I
I
After a certain point it just became a waste of time
like on the
Not a waste of time
But it became a waste of time for the development side of things
It was definitely worth it because we were getting a lot of other things in like grounding barefoot shirtless
We're getting sun. We're getting exercise
but for the purely
Progress point of view on our purpose and our goals it became a waste of time to do it every day
Because then it's just a social thing. So that's why at the moment
We're only doing it once a month and that may change to once every three months or once every five months or once a year
I don't know but the point is find yourself some people who have like-minded
interests goals personalities and
and form a mastermind with them
