Build Your Online Success My name is Bonnie Holscher and as I grow I will be bringing to you resources to help you build your online success. I have been online since 2006 and enjoy a great lifestyle while sharing how I am creating a six figure income and so can you.

So many times you get caught in the hum drum of writing an article and feel we are just running out of steam. When you sit down it just does not seem that you can think or the ideas you had just don’t seem to flow. What you may not realize is that if you do not have a mentor or coach that you are just needing someone to bounce some thoughts off of or just some conversation to free your mind. That is when a group of 5 to 6 people will give you just what you need to break loose.

Tip number 1 for creating a mastermind group of people to learn from and support you is that the people involved should be at your level of income or making more than you. The key point is to team up with people who are already where you want to be. Many people at a higher level are more than willing to share their experiences that may otherwise not be shared. Especially with article writing there are times when sharing ideas with someone who has been writing successfully for sometime will help you through a time of discouragement.

Tip number 2 is to conduct these meetings on a regular basis, either weekly, every other week or monthly. Although in person is preferred, most mastermind groups meet over the phone. Plan at least an hour but preferably two hours for each meeting. It is recommended that for the first few meetings that each person be given at least 30 minutes to talk about their situation, needs, and challenges so that the rest of the group can effectively give feedback and brainstorm was to help. It also insure that each member gets what they need to move forward in their endeavors. With article writing, it may be an advantage to have members in several different niches to create variety in the feedback.

Tip number 3 is for each member to make a commitment to stretch and grow. There should always be a next action stated before the meeting ends from each of the members. There should also be a time to share the successes from the last meeting no matter how small they may seem. This commitment should not be a continuation of the previous goal not met. It must stretch just beyond the goal set from the meeting before so that the member must not only finish the first goal but other things just beyond the last. By doing this it is an assurance that the group in moving forward toward completing the goals they set. If you are writing articles set a clear amount of articles to be written in a specific amount of time hold you accountable to your group and affords you enough pressure to help push you through. It also brings you to a point of accountability. People tend to produce more when you set a deadline or timeline. You will more actively take steps to accomplish the tasks you set out to do. If you say you will write AND submit 5 articles, you will do what it takes to get all or most of it done before the group meets again.

Article writing does not have to be difficult. There are several groups available for mentoring or masterminding your way to success. There are also tools available to help you as well to create an effective article for whatever you happen to be writing about.
