Synopsis

Mojo is the moment when we do something that's purposeful, powerful, and positive and the rest of the world recognizes it. This book is about that moment -- and how we can create it in our lives, maintain it, and recapture it when we need it.

In his follow-up to the New York Times bestseller What Got You Here Won't Get You There, #1 executive coach Marshall Goldsmith shares the ways in which to get -- and keep -- our Mojo. Our professional and personal Mojo is impacted by four key factors: identity (who do you think you are), achievement (what have you done lately?), reputation (who do other people think you are -- and what have you've done lately?), and acceptance (what can you change -- and when do you need to just "let it go"?). Goldsmith outlines the positive actions leaders must take, with their teams or themselves, to initiate winning streaks and keep them coming.

Mojo is: that positive spirit -- towards what we are doing -- now -- that starts from the inside -- and radiates to the outside. Mojo is at its peak when we are experiencing both happiness and meaning in what we are doing and communicating this experience to the world around us. The Mojo Toolkit provides fourteen practical tools to help you achieve both happiness and meaning -- not only in business, but in life.

As the author defines it : "Mojo is that positive spirit toward what we are doing now that starts from the inside and radiates to the outside." He continues: "That's the payoff of having Mojo. More meaning. More happiness." The book then expands on what are the foundational elements of Mojo: "Four vi......more

Alright self-improvement and development book, nothing groundbreaking really in it, but it has some interesting insights and sections where you're likely to change your perspective towards certain matters. It also presents some challenging questions to ask oneself about where you are in life, what y......more

Goodreads review by Bharathi on March 25, 2024

The premise is really good and I like the idea about evaluating activities on a daily basis on a scale of short term happiness and long term satisfaction for constant evaluation of assessing if we are on the life trajectory that we want for ourselves. But the guidelines suggested did not have a natu......more
