3 Benefits of a Successful Mastermind
BY: STEVE COOK
For nearly two decades, I’ve been spearheading masterminds, particularly the innovative Lifeonaire masterminds
These gatherings have nurtured profound relationships among incredible individuals, all focused on enhancing their lives and businesses Our masterminds have consistently yielded remarkable success
What defines a successful mastermind?
To truly benefit from a mastermind, you must invest your time. Without actively engaging with other members, you’ll miss out on the valuable insights and support they offer.
Initially, my masterminds were local, with in-person meetings. As the group expanded, we transitioned into a hybrid model, with multi-day retreats three times a year, supplemented by monthly teleconference calls, now evolved into online meetings Commitment to the group demands dedicated time and effort
It’s essential to note that those who complain about the group’s efficacy are often the ones who aren’t actively participating.
The value of a mastermind lies in the ideas, tips, and experiences shared, which can lead to incredible returns if implemented. Your involvement and commitment directly impact the benefits you receive.
Three key benefits you should expect from a mastermind:
Ideas
Members bring their challenges to the table, and the collective wisdom of the group often provides innovative solutions Even if your challenge is unique, brainstorming with others can lead to breakthroughs.
Accountability
There’s a built-in accountability within a mastermind. Integrity drives members to fulfill their commitments, fostering productivity and achievement of goals.
Relationships
Masterminds create a network of like-minded individuals who understand your journey These relationships offer support, referrals, and a sense of camaraderie that can be hard to find elsewhere When selecting a mastermind, ensure it meets these criteria.
At Lifeonaire, we curate groups to ensure members are at similar levels, avoiding situations where one person dominates. Our coaches guide and hold members accountable, ensuring everyone benefits.

TECH TOOL TALK
Local Market Monitor’s National Economic Outlook for May ‘24
BY: INGO WINZER,
Although the number of jobs in the US economy is increasing at a 2 percent annual rate, a lot of that increase is coming from just two major sectors: healthcare and government. This is a longterm cause for concern, because these sectors don’t create economic growth in the way that manufacturing or finance or technology do. But the more immediate problem is that the surge of jobs in these areas is probably temporary, that it masks a deeper overall economic weakness.
Jobs in the government sector have been increasing at a 3 percent annual rate; in normal times they increase less than 1 percent a year. The main reason for the current level of growth is a surge of jobs in state government (including state colleges), which is really just rehiring after large job losses during the pandemic
In the healthcare sector, jobs are increasing at more than 4 percent a year, while in normal times the rate is 2 percent or less Again, much of the reason seems to be rehiring rather than new job creation. In particular, there’s been a surge of rehiring at nursing homes, which were ravaged during the pandemic. There’s also been very high hiring in home health services and in family services, which may reflect longer-term changes in the way healthcare is delivered
If we subtract out the unusually-high job increases in government and healthcare, the economy is producing jobs at just 1 percent a year
In April, total jobs increased 1.8 percent compared to a year ago, including increases of 3.3 percent in construction, zero in manufacturing, 0 7 percent in retail, 0 5 percent in finance, 0 5 percent in business services, 4 6 percent in healthcare, 1 6 percent at restaurants, and 2 8 percent in government.
