Do you ever procrastinate? Are you human? We all do, from time to time. The good news is that there are tools we can use to minimize distractions and get the important things done when…

If there is one book responsible for creating more millionaires than any other, my guess it would have to be Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

One of the many concepts Hill covers is the power of the Mastermind. He said, “When two people get together to brainstorm solutions to problems, it creates a third mind.” This third mind can create ideas that wouldn’t happen with an individual on his/her own.
