Key Takeaways The people you spend time with have a huge impact on your life. A mastermind is a way to intentionally build a network that will provide the feedback, insight, and support you need to succeed as a business owner.     What if there was one thing you could do to improve the success of your business? As a business coach, I’ve found that masterminds are that one thing. If you have a business or want to start one, this will be a huge benefit for you.   About Masterminds A mastermind is a group of people who meet on a regular basis to discuss important personal or business issues. These meetings provide different perspectives to help them everyone make great decisions, improve habits, and share feedback and support.   Masterminds as the key to business growth Personally, I’ve spent three years as a part of various masterminds. Without the insight and support of these groups, I don’t think I would have been able to grow my business like I have or brought in the earnings I was after. I have found that being intentional about who you surround yourself with by joining a mastermind is central to your success.   Why be part of a mastermind It’s hard to make your best decisions on your own. Getting input from other perspectives will help you see the sides of things you might otherwise miss. It also will provide support when things go well and when they go wrong. Since a mastermind is a network, it will also organically expand your potential to reach new clients and collaborators. In most businesses, the more people who know you and trust you, the more success that will follow. Simply being a part of a mastermind helps hold me accountable. They’re there to cheer me on when I succeed and support me when I stumble. Just having these people on my side pushes me to do what is needed for my business.
