Don’t Ever Use This Word Again…

January 20, 2016 By Larry Hochman 1 Comment

Not if you want to be taken seriously, anyway.

.

I laugh a little bit when strangers message me publicly or privately and tell me we should “Mastermind.”

That’s code for, “I am prospecting you.” Or, “I want to know something you already know but don’t want to make a fair exchange it.”

Mastermind is one of those words that started out awesome. As far as I know, it got its start with Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. A bunch of high level business executives from different fields of the time got together and bounced ideas off one another.

Hill considered it something budding business owners should do. And it was a great idea for the time.

Of course this was before the days when you could reach out and have access to the entire world’s store of knowledge in a matter of seconds. That changed the map a little bit.

.

Nowadays, (and with apologies to those who may be offended), those who are “masterminding” in groups usually spend a lot of time socializing, excuse making and doing everything other than coming up with good ideas for their business and executing them.

.

I know. I used to be one of them.

Mastermind as a concept got hijacked, right along with “manifesting.” That started out as making things happen.

Then it turned into sitting around and letting some weird outside force do the work for you while you sat and thought happy thoughts.

Yeah, I’m just saying like it is.

To those of you who really mean it when you say you want to “Mastermind,” do something that makes people want to give you their time and attention.

Then you can actually do business, not “mastermind” about it.

YOUR TURN

Have you had a good experience with Masterminding?

Have you used it as a way to get closer to someone you want to get closer to?

Have you used it as a way to avoid work?

Comment below. Like, share and Tweet above. Someone is waiting for your “mastermind” to inspire them. 😉

    Oh My Larry! You are Right, Too many people throw that word around without a full understanding about what it really IS. I have a Mastermind and we have a NON Compete Clause and a Confidentiality Clause. I see Folks making prospecting groups saying its a mastermind.. and its simply a place to drop content on those people that might have been looking for the real thing . Im in Diane’s Deep abyss Mastermind and That is a Beautiful thing, The Real Deal, love It :)

What People are Saying

In just 60 minutes of coaching, Larry helped me look at my business obstacles in different ways, and suggested specific steps I could take to resolve these issues. Since our session and by applying Larry’s methods, I’ve experienced a 30% bump in my business income (my best month ever). I directly attribute this to working with Larry and feeling more confident in receiving money for my expertise.

Dr. Bob Clarke

My monthly business income has almost doubled in the past few months. A lot of that is because of my coaching with Larry.

Chad F. Ohio

I met Larry when he came to the Capital District to speak at a business seminar. Watching Larry Speak was mesmerizing and I was able to take so much away from his speech.I also hired Larry for one of his series of coaching and learned so much in the hours we spoke. He helped me set a great foundation for a game plan I set in motion. Larry is great to speak with, can put you in the right direction with grace and ease. I would hire him again without a split second of hesitation.”

Christine Harvey Berry New York

I’ve coached with Larry before and always came away with something good that I could use. Last winter I hit a bad patch of doldrums — just couldn’t get out of my own way. I definitely needed a jump start and figured that Larry was the man to do it. I told Larry I needed someone to kick my a** – in a good way – and he has done a great job. As always. Thanks to Larry, I’m back on track physically, mentally, and emotionally, and I’m getting stuff done.

B.K. Washington

Larry’s influence has helped me embrace, acknowledge and appreciate whatever is going on in my life. I feel myself growing in confidence and stature as I rediscover the imaginative, reactive magnificent ME. I’m seeing life from a whole new perspective, loving this idea of playing BIG, right now it feels like an overarching radiance, beginning to notice far reaching ripple effects as I dance through life, creating a splash and inviting people to join in.

Emily P. United Kingdom

Larry has a gift for telling it like it is, has a real, down to earth approach to motivating people to jump not just ahead in their lives, but onto a whole new higher plane than ever thought possible.

Katherine A. Maryland

In a world where so many people are stuck in a metaphysical morass, Larry has a uniquely tender ability to reach out from the heart and touch your soul.

Richard C. Massachusetts

Working with Larry was very helpful and gave me a lot of strength. And I feel things for me are moving forward, I have a long way to go, but I’m confident in my path.

Timor P. Israel

Larry positively impacts my life in ways I am regularly surprised at, and am incredibly grateful for. He seems to have devoted his life to the enlightenment, freedom and liberation of ALL of us. A human being with such HUGE love and great intention is undeniable. He is simultaneously humble yet powerful. Wise yet playful and lighthearted. A great teacher, yet just one of us, learning as he goes. He inspires me to do and be all those things, too. A person doesn’t have to have it ALL figured out to lead another up to their next level, they just need to have gone a little before them. We are all here to uplift and inspire each other, and Larry gets that. I would recommend him as a guide to anyone. If you feel drawn to him, GO with that.

Liz M. California

Woo Hoo! connecting with you has already sent me in such a good direction! Thank you Larry.

Dianne C. Massachusetts

Larry is so spontaneous and has a wonderful gift of bringing joy, laughter, seriousness and his expertise in psychology that makes the time fun, uplifting and enlightening.

Phyllis S. Virginia
