Like with most things in life, getting help and support will make your journey so much more enjoyable, easier and productive. This is why we are recommending that you find yourself a music mastermind group.

Music Mastermind comes from the concept of the Mastermind Group which was formally introduced by Napoleon Hill in the early 1900’s. In his timeless classic, “Think And Grow Rich” he wrote about the Mastermind principle and described it in this way: “The coordination of knowledge and effort of two or more people, who work toward a definite purpose, in the spirit of harmony.”

Whether you decide to start Music Mastermind group of your own or seek an existing one out, here are some of the benefits that you can expect to gain.

1. Not so lonely

   Once you are involved in a mastermind group, that feeling of “being alone” while pursuing success in the music industry will fade into the background. The other members of the group turn into business consultants of sorts and vice versa.

2. Collaboration

   We already know collaboration is the name of the game in this business. You may find someone in the group that is a perfect fit to work on a project with you or, you may be the perfect person to help another member as well. The group works together collaboratively, to achieve more together. You will find the energy of progress will filter out to everyone in the group.

3. Bigger Network
