#MojoTweet, Inspiring, Delightful!
March 4th, 2010 by Claudia Meydrech in All Soft/Hard Cover Titles,Inspirational Books

When I looked up the meaning of the word “Mojo”, there was only one definition that resonated with me out of several provided, and that was “self-confidence, self-assured,  as in basis for belief in ones self in a situation…” and that’s the perspective I’d like to focus on as I introduce a book that I was asked to review entitled “#MOJOTweet – 140 Bite Sized Ideas on How to Get and Keep You Mojo” by Marshall Goldsmith.

My favorite “praise” for the book was offered by a John Hammergren, CEO, McKesson Corp., and winner of the Warren Bennis Award for Leadership.  He states: “The insights in ‘MOJO’ are certain to help people at all stages of their career tap their full potential and live more fulfilling lives.”  The introduction states that “Mojo happens the moment that we do something purposeful, powerful and positive and the rest of the world recognizes it….”

The author shares why the book was written this way: “Why Did I Write This Book? I wrote this THINKaha book to share what I know with as many people as I can. I wrote this book to help my readers have happier and more meaningful lives.”  You can follow the author, or send a tweet or direct message to Marshall Goldsmith on Twitter using @coachgoldsmith.

The book would not be if it weren’t for Twitter, by that I mean we wouldn’t have words such as “Tweet” and we wouldn’t know how to express ourselves in a meaningful way in 140 characters or less.  This book is a collection of wonderful, uplifting, positive phrases that bring a smile to the face, or motivate you to take action, or cause you to think again about how you might be viewing a particular situation you find yourself in.  You may find yourself sharing some of these “tweets” on Twitter and mentioning where you found them….in 140 characters or less:-).

Take, for example, this tweet “A man who takes more delight in doing his job well, even at the expense of some easy profit, is rich in Mojo. He will never starve.”  It reminds me that it is more important to do a job well than it is to focus on what I’ll receive for it…that there is a satisfaction in a job well done that transcends money.

This is just one example of many a wonderful “Tweet” that can be found in this book.  For more information about this book,  visit this link at the “THINKaha” website, or purchase from Amazon through the image above in this post.
