INTRODUCTION

I'm involved in a MasterMind group that is creating a Home Study "Think and Grow Rich" Course where...

Every Wednesday (began Wed the 5th of Jan) and for 8 successive Wednesdays, the MasterMind group will be digging into a different chapter or chapters of the book via private teleconferences.

These teleconferences are being recorded and will become the backbone of the Home Study Course.

I'll be reporting to you each Thursday, following the Wednesday teleconference about the highlights of what the MasterMind group discussed.

Understand that these private teleconferences are open only to the investors in the product (Home Study Course) and a few invited "specialists" and therefore I'm writing these brief reports to keep you "in the loop".

This session of the MasterMind Group started by discussing the virtues of what a MasterMind Group is and how and why it works.

Napoleon refers to the MasterMind as "The Driving Force".

He goes on the say that PLANS are inert and use- less without sufficient POWER to translate them into ACTION.

POWER may be defined as "organized and intelligently directed KNOWLEDGE." Makes sense.

Hill even declares, "No individual may have great power without availing him (or her) self of the "Master Mind"".

So you can't get where you're going... at least all the way to "great power"... without interfacing with others.

And, you know, I agree with that.

My experience with MasterMind groups is that a group of like-minded people (same interest topic) get together. Most of mine have been through phone meetings.

The first meeting is organizational, and then the good ideas start to flow. Over the next few months, uninspired people start to fall out...

and the group seems to dissipates.

BUT I ALWAYS come away with having bonded with one or two individuals that become longlasting members of my PERSONAL MASTERMIND (as I call it).

The relationships I have with these close businss friends ... well you just can't put a value on it.

You'll always get an honest answer (a unique power of a MasterMind), they are always there for you .. and WHY?

Because you're always there for them!

And now on to the most misunderstood chapter in the book... Sex Transmutation!

The premise of this chapter is that, if you harness your natural energies - the sexual drive being the MOST powerful of human desires - to express yourself, you can accomplish great things.

The meaning of the word "transmute" is, in simple language, "the changing, or transferring of one element, or form of energy, into another.

Sex Transmutation means the switching of the mind from thoughts of physical expression (having sex, flirting, etc.) to thoughts of some other nature.

Napoleon goes into much detail about the importance of a woman to a man (and man to a woman) and sites many famous examples.

My wife knows when I do things to become more successful.. yes, I'm doing it for me... but I'm more deeply doing it for "us".

I think that's the connective power that he's talking about.

Hill identifies Sexual Energy as the most powerful of human energies, followed by Love (which Hill says "moderates and helps direct" sexual energy)...

... and 8 others energy sources.. including alcohol!

In order to connect with the higher consciousness, you need to harness this energy.

In essence, Napoleon wants you to grab the energy from these sources (sex energy being the most power- ful) and transmute it into energy directed to create your desired reality.

You see, it's energy that causes action... thought action then concrete reality.

About 20 years ago, I took an "advanced" sales course that likened a prospects emotions during a sales presentation to a pendulum...

and the salesperson was instructed to get the pendulum swinging (create energy)... and it didn't matter if it was swinging "away" from the sale.

The only thing that mattered was that you got the pendulum swinging and the energy going.

So, I'd approach a prospect and they always seemed to just sit there... and they wanted me to dump information on them.

Well, I'd get the pendulum going with..."Now that I'm here, I realize this product may not be for you..."

Silence.

The prospect would say something like, "You called this meeting with me and you don't think I can use your product?!" ... with an angry look.

Mission accomplished... pendulum moving.

Then I'd say... "Well, let me ask you..." and I'd go on building the energy and swinging the pendulum... evenutally ... my way!

So, I can see Napoleon's point on energy and the transmutation of such. I was taking "anger energy" and transmuting it to "buying energy".

I guess, the notions of sparking energy in combination with my understanding of the importance of tapping into the "sixth sense" shows up in some of my company's products today...

Like the "Developing a Closing Instinct" mental training session in our SalesMind Software, which helps sales pros to get more of their desired outcome - sales!

Anyway, this Sex Transmutation chapter is one I'll definitely come back to, and probably, so should you.

TIME MANAGEMENT

One day an expert In time management was speaking to a group of business students and, to drive home a point, used an illustration those students will never forget.

As he stood in front of the group of high powered overachievers he said, “Okay, time for a quiz”. Then he pulled out a one-gallon wide mouth jar and set it on the table in front of him. He then produced about a dozen fist sized rocks and carefully placed them, one at a time, into the jar. When the jar was filled to the top and no more rocks would fit inside, he asked, “Is this jar full”? Every one in the class said, “Yes”. The expert said “really”

He reached under the table and pulled out a bucket of gravel. Then he dumped some gravel in and shook the jar causing pieces of gravel to work themselves down into the space between the big rocks. He asked the group once more, “is the jar full?” By this time the class was on him. “probably not”. One of them answered.

“Good” he replied. HE reached under the table and brought out a bucket of sand. He started dumping the sand in the Jar and it went into all of the spaces left between the rocks & and the gravel. Once more he asked the Question, “Is this jar full?’. “No!” the class shouted. Once again he said “good”.

Then he grabbed a pitcher of water and began to pour it in until the jar was filled to the brim. Then he looked at the class and asked “What is the point of this illustration”? One eager beaver raised his hand and said, “The point is, no matter how full schedule is, if you try really hard you can always fit some more things in it”.

“No”, the speaker replied, “that’s not the point. The truth this illustration teaches us is: If you don’t put the big rocks in first, you’ll never get them in at all.”

What are the “Big Rocks” in your life?. Your children…. Your Loved ones….. Education….. Your dreams….. A worthy cause… Teaching or mentoring others….. Doing things that you love…. Time for your self….. Your health ……. Your significant other….

Remember to put these BIG ROCKS in first or you’all never get them in at all. If you sweat the little stuff (the gravel, the sand) then you’all fill your life with little things you worry about that don’t really matter, and you’all never have the real quality time you need to spend on the big important stuff (the big rocks)

Ask your self this question : ‘What are the ‘big rocks’ in my life? Then, put those in your jar first.

Consider the Consequences

By: Brian Tracy

Long Time Perspective

Here is an important point to remember: All intelligent people are afraid of something. It is normal and natural to be concerned about your physical, emotional and financial well-being. The courageous person is not a person who is unafraid. As Mark Twain once said, “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear; not absence of fear.”

Think About Your Future

Successful people have a clear future orientation. They think five, ten and twenty years out into the future. They analyze their choices and behaviors in the present to make sure that they are consistent with the long-term future that they desire.

In your work, having a clear idea of what is really important to you in the long-term makes it much easier for you to make better decisions about your priorities in the short-term.

Determine The Consequences

By definition, something that is important has long-term potential consequences. Something that is unimportant has few or no long-term potential consequences. Before starting on anything, you should always ask yourself, "What are the potential consequences of doing or not doing this task?"

The clearer you are about your future intentions, the greater influence that clarity will have on what you do in the moment. With a clear long-term vision, you are much more capable of evaluating an activity in the present and to assure that it is consistent with where you truly want to end up.

Make It A Top Priority

If there is a task or activity with large potential positive consequences, make it a top priority and get started on it immediately. If there is something that can have large potential negative consequences if it is not done quickly and well, that becomes a top priority as well. Whatever your frog is, resolve to gulp it down first thing.

Keep Motivated

Motivation requires motive. The greater the positive potential impact that an action or behavior of yours can have on your life, once you define it clearly, the more motivated you will be to overcome procrastination and get it done quickly.

Action Exercises

The mark of the superior thinker is his or her ability to accurately predict the consequences of doing or not doing something. The potential consequences of any task or activity are the key determinants of how important it really is to you and to your company. This way of evaluating the significance of a task is how you determine what your next frog really is.
