The Power of the Master Mind

Everybody knows that Wednesdays are a special day at Mentoring For Free. The mental cleanse calls are on Wednesdays at 3PM EST and 8PM EST. This is where we come together and concentrate on and study this wonderful eBook (Free): “THINK AND GROW RICH” by Napoleon Hill. Below is a brief summary of this week’s lesson:

Chapter 10 :: Power of the Master Mind ? The Driving Force – The Ninth step towards Riches
The Power of the Master Mind Group – Power is essential for the success in the accumulation of money. Power may be defined as organized intelligently directed knowledge. Power as a term used here refers to organized effort, sufficient to enable an individual to transform desire into its monetary equivalent. Organized effort is produced through the coordination of effort of two or more people, who work in a spirit of harmony.

Plans are inert and useless without sufficient power to translate them into action. The ways power can be acquired is very simple. Power is organized knowledge and the sources of knowledge are Infinite intelligence, this source of knowledge may be contracted with the aid of creative imagination as described in an earlier chapter.

Accumulated experience? The accumulated experience of man (or that portion of it which have been organized and recorded), may be found in any well-equipped public library. An important part of this experience is taught in schools and collages where it has been classified and organized. Experiment and research in the field of science, and in other walks of life, men are gathering, classifying and organizing new facts daily. This is the source to turn to when knowledge is not available through accumulated experience.

The Master Mind may be defined as Coordination of knowledge and effort, in a spirit of harmony, between two or more people, for the attainment of a definite purpose. No individual may have great power without availing himself of the Master Mind.

Coaching, Mentoring, Training – Are they the same?

In today’s society as you surf the internet you see the terms coaching, mentoring and training all the time. I can’t help but wonder if people know the difference between the terms or do they believe that they are the same? Most people tend to use the terms coaching, mentoring, and training interchangeably. However, there are differences. Mentoring is often thought of as the transfer of wisdom from a wise and trusted teacher. He or she helps to guide a person’s career, normally to the upper levels of an organization. However, this perception is starting to change as organizations are now implementing mentoring at all levels.

Training is about teaching or instructing a particular skill or knowledge and is normally given in a formal environment.

Coaching, on the other hand, is about increasing an individual’s knowledge and thought processes with a particular task or process. It creates a supportive environment that develops critical thinking skills, ideas, and behaviors about a subject. Although it is closely tied to training, it is more personal and intimate in nature.

The main difference between coaching and training is that training is normally done in real time. That is, it is performed on the job. The coach uses real tasks and problems to help the learner increase his or her performance. While with training, learning is normally performed within the classroom.

Mentoring is more career developing in nature, while training and coaching are more task or process oriented. Also, mentoring relies on the mentor’s specific knowledge and wisdom, while coaching and training relies on facilitation and developmental skills. Although there are these differences, you could say that the three are synergistic and complementary, rather than mutually exclusive as most people would agree that a good coach trains and mentors, a good trainer coaches and mentors, and a good mentor trains and coaches. A coach is also a:

Leader – they set the example and become a role model.
Facilitator – able to instruct a wide variety of material.
Team Builder – able to pull people into a unified team.
Peace Keeper – able to act as a mediator.
Pot Stirrer – brings controversy out in the open and resolves conflict.
Devil’s Advocate – able to raise issues for better understanding of the individuals involved.
Cheerleader – praises people for doing great.
Counselor – provides intimate feedback
