Ace Teams will help you to create success alliances through success teams, support groups, mastermind circles, group challenges and accountability partners.
Why teams work?
Expansion of Resources. You are only one person with one set of ideas, experiences, contacts. By joining an Ace Team, you access all the ideas, experiences, contacts of the other team members. Additionally, since they know your goals, new resources that comes on their radar that relates to your goal will be passed on to you — information you might never have run across yourself.
Thinking further outside the box. We tend to get into 'mind ruts'. Typically, you will find yourself running around your own ideas. A group can think outside the rut for you. Where the one way you can think of may not work in the situation you are in, the group can help you out of the rut to find the second right answer — and, if that won’t work either, than the third right answer... or however many right answers it takes to get you where you want to go.
Courage. The team provides a sounding board for your doubts and fears. They support you in pushing past those fears, in both practical and concrete ways, and at an emotional level. Sometimes group members physically go along to provide moral support during an especially challenging task.
Your own traffic cop. Your team members stop you from getting off track. Once they know your goals, they sometimes see more clearly than you do when you are taking on opportunities that don’t fit in. And they call you on it.
Your own personal cheering squad. When you succeed at something, your team helps you celebrate. We all need more 'victory talk' than we are currently getting. Your team helps you do that — to acknowledge and celebrate your successes — large and small. And, for the times you are feeling down, it helps to be around 'up' people who can remind you that you won’t always feel that way.
The chance for deeper life exploration. Doing various life exploration exercises and then discussing them with group members deepens your understanding of who you are and deepens your experience of life.
Possibility thinking. As you see others move towards what they want and succeed, you get inspired and motivated to take action yourself. There really are amazing opportunities all around for all of us. The group helps you to see that — and to take action to move into new possibilities.
Accountability. It’s like the Weight Watchers concept: You have to weigh in. In an Ace Team everyone has to report on how they did towards accomplishing the goal(s) they set during the last meeting. It is often easier to justify to ourselves why we don’t do something that would move us towards achieving our goals and we can keep putting it off. It is harder to keep facing a group of others and admitting you haven’t done what you said you would do (what you know you want to do!)
