 |  Mastermind group - who'd you pick?
A thought just sprang into my mind. If you were to choose people to be in your mastermind group, who'd you pick? I'd pick: * Steve Pavlina * Mike Adams * Eben Pagan (aka David DeAngelo) * Tony Robbins * Napoleon Hill (obviosly, it was his idea  )

Here is my list in order... Leonardo Da Vinci Benjamin Franklin Albert Einstein Bill Gates Mark Twain Steve Jobs Steve Pavlina George W. Bush (Some one will need to serve the beverages and snacks) Nothing would probably get done though... They are so smart each of them would think they are right, their way is best and spend eternity arguing... If you really want to get things done you need one smart person and a bunch of dummies to agree with the smart person and do what needs to be done. Last edited by CeciL; 12-05-2006 at 03:07 PM. |

My wife. Steve, of course, as well as Erin. Douglas Adams (so long as he promises not to talk about Apple) Piers Anthony Sgt. Audie Murphey and Radical I'm trying to keep as many do-ers as I have philosophers, as well as keeping an even balance of skeptics and wide thinkers. After all, before enlightenment, we all chop wood and carry water, as well as after enlightenment, we all chop wood and carry water. |

Astristotle Rene Descartes Immanuel Kant Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Carl Friedrich Gauß David Hilbert Gottlob Frege Charles Sanders Peirce Bertrand Russell Karl Popper Kurt Gödel Jean-Paul Sartre Albert Camus John Forbes Nash Timothy Gowers Terence Tao ... If I could pick only two, I'd take Richard Dawkins and Jesus to sit on a table for a glass of wine or two. Bush and Bin Laden would also be inspiring. |

Edwards Deming -- ditto. quality management and continuous improvement Jay Abraham -- favorite marketing writer Napoleon Hill -- wrote the first success book I ever read which got me into personal development Philosophical/Spiritual mastermind: Carl Jung Ken Wilber Immanuel Kant Deepak Chopra Alan Watts Lao Tzu Aurobindo Wei Wu Wei Raymond Smullyan Douglas Hofstadter Gerald Weinberg Erwin Schrödinger Fritjof Capra Pao Chih Rumi Quote:
The two I'd pick on the philosophical-side would be Jesus and Lao Tzu. It would be great to hear how each would reword their philosophies using modern-day language and modern-day metaphors. And I wonder where exactly they would disagree with each other. Last edited by Glass Joe; 02-03-2007 at 12:30 PM. | |

WOW...you guys have said it all... sigh: I want only a few in mine, because if there's more than 4, it's quite chaotic and too many ego. So, I'd have to stick with Ghandi Mother Teresa Wayne Dyer Gordan B. Hinkley yeah, that should cover it |
