I was really surprised at the difference that reading this book has made to my working life in just a month or so, and, I hope I can maintain the change. After all, I must confess, a large part of the reason that I bought the book was due to the title.
At the time of purchasing the book I was struggling in a new role that I had at work after being in a different role for 10 years, and had got to the point of either looking for another job or having a nervous breakdown - I wasn't sure which would come first. The book starts out explaining what Mojo is, but basically it is being positive in everything you do to the point where it is obvious to those around that you are proud of your work and achievements. I used to feel that way, but had lost it without even realising it.
There are a number of real life examples that the author describes, which made me understand just how negative my behaviour had become in the last few years. Don't get me wrong, I was still proud of a lot of the work I did, but I don't think that it necessarily showed and my negativity (boss bashing, complaining and whining, constantly going over the same ground when no one listened the first, second etc., times) has resulted in a reputation that I will struggle to get past. However, with this book I am already making a start.
I haven't used the toolkit in it extensively, but have identified areas of my job that don't do anything to make me happy and I am increasing my efforts to move those to someone who will get more out of them. I have learned to accept things I can't change (change it or change you as the author puts it) and already the MD has stated that I appear more relaxed - so something is working.
This is a book that only tells you what you already know, is slightly comforting in that you are not the only one stupid enough to have those traits, and is positive in that there are examples of people that have improved things - and not just corporate, high flying executives.
If you feel that you are stuck in a rut, or that no one is listening to you when it is so obvious that you are right, or that you just feel as though you aren't performing as well as you could or should, then I really recommend this book.

I found it interesting, enlightening and instructional without being patronising or assumptive. Some great ideas on how to develop both personally and professionally.

I like reading these kind of books. My wife says I read too many self help books and don't do anything about it. This was a good read but again wasn't sufficiently brilliant to inspire me into action. There is some good advice but I wasn't 'jolted' into action.
