WHAT IS MOJO / 7 WAYS TO GET IT BACK

MOJO means to find the magic in what you do. MOJO is your special spark which keeps you motivated. It forces you to get up at 5AM and sleep at 12AM. It is the spark of life inside, which inspires you to believe in yourself and achieve things beyond your wildest dreams. You need it because it gives you undeterred focus, bulldog persistence and fanatical obsession to achieve the object of your desire. Have you lost your inspiration or creative genius, that special spark, let's look at ways to get it back NOW. 1 If you want something done, do it yourself You have to cast the first stone. If you keep talking about ideas without taking any action hoping that people will be inspired and help make your ideas happen then you need to wake up :) Start the task. It will build self esteem and you will surprise yourself by the amount of work you get done. Once you have the momentum then ask other people to help you get certain things done. 2 Never procrastinate anything you can do right now Shut the alarm now and get out of bed. You can fix many things with minimum effort today which require enormous effort tomorrow. These things will not disappear and in time the feelings of guilt for not having done them will make you even less likely to fix the problems. 3 When you have several things you could be doing and don't know which to do, just do any one of them! Cannot decide between two or more choices, there is a good chance that the differences does not matter. Most people hesitate in this kind of situation. Become conscious and just choose one choice randomly. 4 Always assume that you will succeed If you don't expect to succeed in an endeavor, then you will not do your best and will not notice possible solutions. If you know that you will eventually succeed then you will concentrate all your power at the problem. Of course, there is no point in attempting what you cannot do, a certain amount of self-knowledge is always needed. 5 If you can't find a solution, try changing the rules. Try thinking out of the box. Think BIG. Be unreasonable. Arnold Schwarzenegger said the following “I knew I was a winner back in the late sixties. I knew I was destined for great things. People will say that kind of thinking is totally immodest. I agree. Modesty is not a word that applies to me in any way – I hope it never will.” 6 If you cannot do anything about something, there is no point worrying about it. Worrying is stressful, and in most situations doesn't accomplish anything - it just wastes energy. Instead of worrying about things, either do something about them or find ways around the problem. One useful idea is to write down your worries on slips of paper, and then put them away in a box. Regularly, once a week or so, you open the box and see what you can do about the worries that are still relevant. 7 Just Do It The duty of the conscious mind is usually to inhibit rather than start action, and if you become too conscious of what you are doing in a tense situation you will hesitate or slow down. Plan, believe and take action. Do not wait to perfect your plan refernce http://www.onepowerfulword.com/2010/09/what-is-mojo-why-you-need-it-and-7-ways.html
