The Bitcoiners I coach have had some outstanding wins of late
1. Delivering 14MW of ASICS to stabilize the grid of Sweden
2. Not only securing meetings with, but influencing parties on the political left, center and right in France to all adopt pro-Bitcoin positions
3. Others of my clients have recently met with the prime ministers of two nations, and the energy minister of another one to further energy policies that explicitly include Bitcoin mining
4. Another just raised capital from Tim Draper
... and so the list goes on
The coach often gets the credit for these wins, but there is something else at play that is less obvious, but arguable even more powerful.
It's a concept every Bitcoiner intuitively understands already:
your peers
Let me give you an example. One of my clients doubled his sales win.
I didn't coach him on a single sales principle.
What happened was much more effortless, and much more sustainable.
He stopped doing things that were reducing the likelihood of sales (talking too much, being attached to an outcome)
He was able to do that because (in his words) "I've been meditating every day for the last 2 weeks"
He did that because (in his words) he was inspired by the win one of his peers on the group had around running 213km in a month, and used the same principles his peer had used to make his running habit stick, to make his meditation habit stick.
When you're surrounded by people who are committed to being the best version of themselves, even if the actual things they do are different to you, you end up taking on the best of them also.
If you are part of a group that has been specially curated for commitment, growth mindset, and the ability to give and receive in a group setting, you take on the best habits of from the best examples of those habits
That's why the two things that most consistently happen in the 10-week groups I run are
- people undergo ~10 years of personal and professional development in 10 weeks
- people make friends for life
Most of them continue on to the year long mastermind, because having experienced the personal, behavioral and commercial value of being in a group of elite peers - they don't want to go back to how they used to try to achieve goals.
I don't blame them. Trying to achieve goals without the best peer group is like trying to fill a bath with the plug out: you may still succeed for long enough to achieve your objective, but it takes a lot more time and resources than is necessary.
I'm running one more 10-week block this year and have a couple of places left. If you think this might be for you, reach out.(Daniel Batten)
