Marshall Goldsmith Delivers Timeless Advice

Marshall Goldsmith, author of MOJO

Marshall Goldsmith, author of Mojo: How to Get It, How to Keep It, How to Get It Back If You Lose It, provided some timeless insight during our interview today on Brainstormin’ with Billy the Brain. His advice? Take a Breath. Think of yourself as a 95-year old looking back on your life. What would you be thinking.

Statistically, Marshall has found people reflect on three things: 1) Be Happy, 2) Build Relationships with People and 3) Go For Your Dream.

Marshall defines MOJO as the positive spirit of what you’re doing. He described those things that block MOJO as NOJO—No Joy.

Marshall made many other interesting observations. For instance, based on what he has learned from 360° Feedback, women make better leaders than men. Perhaps it’s because women aren’t trying to win too much as men so often do.

I'm the host of a radio program on which I interview thought leaders in business, entertainment, sports and local California issues titled BRAINSTORMIN' with Billy the Brain. The program broadcasts at 10 o'clock am Pacific time each weekday on KKZZ AM 1400 or on the Internet at 1400KKZZ.com. While the show is broadcast locally in Ventura County, CA, the guests have national—and international—appeal. I have listeners from 39 states in the United States and over 100 countries. Listeners and guest agree. My interivews are thought-provoking, insightful and fun.
