What we discussed:

• New technology -- live streaming, introduces you to new people but watch the clock to also not let the time get away when using it.
• Common Core changed Bonnie's view on education, where it has become all about the data and how that data shakes out.
• Peter Principle - you cannot be wonderful at everything.
• Our being behind in terms of scores, education and progressing, workforce resulted to the Common Core being created to set standards.
• Common Core curriculum up everything students are studying by a year making them miss a year's lesson.
• Common Core curriculum is not inherently bad but how it is delivered. And on top of that kids are being tested constantly.
• Mastermind types:
  • Napoleon Hill's mastermind is when two or more minds got together to create a super consciousness and be part of the larger conscious perspective.
  • Jack Boland has 8 steps into mastermind consciousness.
• Mastermind, according to Bonnie, is the meeting of the minds to improve in some pre-determined way.
• Bonnie is involved in the mastermind about business and improving the business for women who has been in business for 3 years or less.
• Mastermind sessions may meet virtually.
• Marketing funnel is all the things you're sending out -- emails, blogs, live streaming talks, and all the times you mention this particular mastermind and who you are marketing it.
• Bonnie suggested to google mastermind, search in Facebook and start educating yourself on what's out there.
