Whoa… That was surreal.

… Like one of those experiences that you’ll never forget.

In fact, I had a moment during the day where I looked over at my partner (leading the group with me) and I couldn’t help but pinch myself.

Was this really happening?

I mean… he’s one of my idols.

He’s one of the biggest names in the world and someone who I have deeply respected, admired, and appreciated.

… And now we are leading the group together… as peers… as partners.

If you’re wondering what I’m talking about…

Let me explain.

On Friday, I held a private MasterMind for my top affiliate partners who played FULL out on our last campaign to reward them.

If you don’t know what a MasterMind is… it is a small group that gets together with the sole intention of working TOGETHER to grow each person’s business.

They are incredible… and something I suggest every entrepreneur in the world participate in.

And get this…

Max & John

I co-led the experience with the one and only John Assaraf at his private home in Rancho Santa Fe (yes, the same one as in The Secret).

So picture this.

The room was filled with the most big-vision, high-level experts and leaders in our industry (Greg Habstrit, Robert Evans, Milana Leshinsky, Alexis Martin Neely, Eva Gregroy, and Morgana Rae).

Then there was John and I… leading the group… together.

Wow… talk about a dream come true.

Now I’ve led many Mastermind groups on my own that have been massively powerful.

Yet there was something about co-leading it with John that made it even more special.

Not just because of the incredible breakthroughs and transformations people had.

…. But also because I realized deep inside of myself that dreams do come true.

Here’s What I Mean (& How This Impacts You)

It has always been a deep driving desire of mine to surround myself and partner with the highest caliber people in the world.

As Jim Rohn says: “You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.”

But to be honest… I always wondered what would need to happen to translate this intention into reality.

I mean, we all come up with these big dreams and these huge visions…

Yet “the how” to make it happen can seem downright impossible to figure out… right?

And that’s where most get paralyzed or stuck.

Here’s The Solution

Look, there is no fool-proof plan that will guarantee your success…

But the reality is that big accomplishments are made up of many small steps. And when you see a great opportunity, you have to act on it…. And fast!

Too many people hear about something that could be massively beneficial, go into instant self-doubt that it couldn’t work for them, and come with every excuse possible… and then let the opportunity pass them by.

And unfortunately, that is usually what happens.

The opportunity goes away, people don’t grow or expand, and they are left stuck exactly where they are right now.

The Big Challenge

Making big bold new decisions is scary.

Your mind starts to spin with all sorts of “what if’s” and “will it work?” thoughts.

Your body starts to contract and psychically feel more closed.

And you start to debate about what other people will think and question whether you will get support from the people around you.

Should I hire that new coach? Should I let go of that employee who isn’t performing? Should I go to that event?

Ahhhhhhh!!!!!

I Totally Get It

Every time I make a big decision, I still have this same experience.

My mind starts to race. My body contracts. I get scared.

But you have to TRUST that everything will work out. You have to TRUST that you will get the support and help you need. And most importantly…

You have to TRUST yourself.

Because the only real person who can sabotage your success is YOU. Everyone else is just playing off your energy and presence.

Take The Next Big Bold Action

To end this post, I have a challenge for you.

Whatever BIG decision is waiting for you, taunting you to make a choice…

Go ahead and do it… and FAST!

Take a deep breath, repeat the mantra “Everything will work out for the better” and then go for it!

Stop “sitting with the decision” and waiting for clarity. You don’t get clarity in contemplation. You get clarity in action.

Because while it might sound totally cliche, I’m here to declare that dreams do come true… as long as you are willing to keep moving forward in the direction of making them real.

You feel me?

By the way, here is a little video FROM JOHN that might inspire you to take this leap!

Much love,

Max
