1. Hunger for More: People in general have a hunger for pursuing what’s possible in life. There is – and can be – more than what they’re experiencing right now.
2. Helping: We have an inborn desire to serve, help, and come alongside others, especially in their times of dire need.
3. Health: People long to be better stewards of their minds and bodies.

Ray’s Take on Masterminds:

Every leader/business owner needs to be a part of three different mastermind groups:

1. A free group made up of peers
2. A group you pay to be a member of, learning from others
3. A group you LEAD and share your expertise

Leadership and Life Principles:

• Treat people the way you want to be treated. Whatever you want men to do or give to you, give or do to them BEFORE they do it to you! (Luke 6:31)
• If you want to be great, you have to be a servant. (Matthew 6:20)
• If you want to be exalted, you have to be humble. (Luke 14:11)
• “He who thinks he leads but has no followers is only taking a walk.” ~ John Maxwell
