9 Ways To Show Mojo During Corona Virus Times In an earlier post , I detailed the components of mojo. Lets apply these ideas to the current situation. The most important component of mojo is motivation. If you are internally motivated to get back to work, bless you. If not, read this post about external motivation.

Knowing about the Wuhan Virus si going to help you deal with it. Name - Is it the corona virus, or COVID-19, or th...

Many sources make lists. I have used them to build mine for you. Wikipedia is a source that does a good job of describing how a list is built. But I don't rely on it. Instead, I used garden of praise , thrillist , ranker , listovative , The Greates_Americans , and my own judgement as my sources. These are chosen to help you.

What To Do When Your Mojo Is Questioned Maybe you didn’t get the promotion. Maybe you weren’t asked to be captain. Maybe someone said you don’t have what it takes.

In my first post , I described the components of mojo. Start from there. motivation expertise experience support luck faith willingness to act You can’t change some of these.
