The Mastermind Principle

For where two or three are gathered in my name, there I am in the midst of them.
- Matthew 18:20


The To Think is to Create concept was seriously explored in the first run of PSI’s Contuing Education entitled “The Mastermind Principle.”

The Mastermind Principle is based on an ancient premise that the combined energies of two or more like-minded individuals is many times greater than the sum total of the individual energies involved. The Mastermind Principle also teaches that other like-minded idividuals can believe and accept as true things which we find hard to conceive and believe for ourselves.

Napoleon Hill is credited with coining the phrase 'Master Mind' (more commonly, Mastermind). The 'Master Mind' may be defined as: “coordination of knowledge and effort in a spirit of harmony, between two or more people, for the attainment of a definite purpose.” In Think and Grow Rich, Hill discusses his creation of Master Mind groups and how these groups could multiply an individual's brain power and continually motivate positive emotions. However, the Master Mind was a deeper and more powerful connection than mere synergetic cooperation would suggest, and requires an understanding of Hill's belief's about the brain and the nature of energy (particularly thought energy) within Thomas Edison's cosmological understanding of matter and energy. In describing the Philosophy of Achievement, Hill was careful in his writings to examine the brain as a sending/receiving station for thought; and for the first time in history explained to the world that like-mindedness had a physical basis. Hence the Master Mind, governed by the laws of mutual attraction, could only exist if like-mindedness was achieved between individuals. Scientists had only recently (in Hill's time) shown that the brain was the true source of thought, and hence like-mindedness could now have a true physical underpinning from the point of view of science.

Last August 14, PSI graduates gathered at the PSI Seminar hall to listen to the story of one successful Mastermind (MM) Group – that of Lourdes de Luna, Don Esguerra and Sharon Que. Their MM Group started last February 25 2007 and it is still going strong up to now.


Here are some of the highlights of the seminar:

  • Formula for Creating a Mastermind Group
  • The Mastermind Process
  • Success stories of the MM group of Lourdes, Sharon and Don
  • “Your thinking creates your result”
  • (BONUS MODULE) Awareness of your money blue print and your psychological wallet
