5 Minute Mojo

Today I have you ponder the nature of convenience.  For you, is it a blessing or a curse. Come find out.

You don't have all the answers for any one except yourself.  Individuals, religions and governments all face conflict because they ask the world to be like them. Hear how that is not the best way to interact with people.

Looks mean so much to so many people.  They are obsessed with their physical form, the very form that will be food for nature in less than 100 years.  Today I talk about how to see your body in a different way.  All that and a question to boot.

It is a proven fact that being outside in nature increases your happiness.  So quite simply, the more time inside the unhappier you will be. Think about it.

The times of comfort may feel nice and snuggly but they don't help you become better.  Today's topic and question help you realize that. Hello my friends and welcome to Five Minute Mojo. When do you grow? That’s not one of the questions I pose at the end of an episode. I just want you to think about it. If you are like most people you grow when you are forced to. Not physically of course, but emotionally. That is the main reason coaches, personal development people and leaders constantly talk about being outside the comfort zone. They all realize that you don’t grow when you are complacent, stagnant. Think about it. When was the last time you were at your job and everything was going great. Your boss was pleased with your work, you seemed to be getting things done without a ton of distractions or drama. During that peaceful day did you just stop and say, “Yeah, this isn’t working for me. I think I need to change things up.” and with that epiphany you walk into your bosses office and calmly announce that you q

Being alone and contemplative are not valued in American Culture.  However, Boredom sets in when we look outside of who we are for constant entertainment.  See where this is unserving on today's episode of Five Minute Mojo.

So, you're in a rut huh?  Well, what have you done to break yourself out of it? Today's Five Minute Mojo not only has a suggestion but a question as well.

History can teach us many things.  In fact the principles of a fuller life have been around for centuries.  Today I talk about those tenets and help you instill them in your life as well.

Facing any change, any new beginning is a challenge.  It seems so daunting.  Today I talk about the two words that will get you unstuck.

Today I talk about the things we miss each day in our rush to get so many things done.  Of course I will bring home for you with a question of the day.

Today I talk about the perception of autonomy.  More often than not, we are at the whims of others, sometimes in the subtlest of ways.

Today I talk about the ways we gain or lose calm by being unaware of the places we frequent. The Question of the day will bring it home for you.

When you add your energy to a group or cause does it make you stronger or weaker?  That is just one thing to think about today as I talk about leading and following.   Hello my friends and welcome to Five Minute Mojo.  The word community has a profound meaning for me.  It means the coming together of different people from all different backgrounds to create a oneness that thrives, that encompasses the very nature of life, to live, grow and love.    However there is also a coming together that may not be as growth oriented as the community I think of.  What I am talking about specifically is a group of followers.     In the distant past we found security in the group.  We depended on it for our survival. That need for security got instilled in our psyche and amazingly it has become part of our genetics.  Today we carry some of the same thoughts that our cave dwelling ancestors believed. Specifically, that to belong to the group is important.  Like many thoughts this can either work in our favor or work against

Your life doesn't go smoothly when you ignore the places that sap your energy.  Find out how to counteract the seemingly small ways you give away your joy.
