About the Book

Jon has been kicked out of college. He spends his days playing video games and his nights delivering pizzas, with no motivation to develop a sustainable plan for the future. Recognizing this, Jon's girlfriend decides that she doesn't want to be stuck with a video game-addicted pizza delivery man for the rest of her life. So, she tells him to get his act together, or she will have to end their relationship. Jon feels like a total failure. SOUND FAMILIAR? Failure is a common part of life for everyone. But when we fail, most people make the mistake of identifying themselves as the failure instead of recognizing that they have experienced failure. In The Flunked-Out Professor, readers follow Jon as he makes a series of bad choices which get him kicked out of college and beaten down in life. Eventually, he chooses a new path--one that ultimately leads him back to the same college that kicked him out...as a faculty member! Jon shares the six steps that led him from the depths of academic failure to the heights of academic success, and how those same six steps can be applied to overcome the failures in your life as well. Jon also shares best practices for achieving college success and life skills for enhancing personal growth and professional development. The Flunked-Out Professor is a must-read for anyone who is currently experiencing failure and wants to pick themselves up, dust themselves off, and start down the road toward success.

Review :
Praise for The Flunked-Out Professor "I went to college as an escape from the farm. While perhaps not a noble reason, it allowed me to fully accept responsibility for who and where I was. The Flunked-Out Professor provides much needed guidance I wish I had for that critical time of life--where decisions are made about relationships, careers, health habits and more. These six steps will gently guide you through those critical decisions and course corrections that can lead to your ultimate success." --Dan Miller New York Times bestselling author of 48 Days to the Work You Love "Jon shows us that you can flunk out of college, make less than stellar life-choices, and still end up on top! From flunk-out to faculty member, Jon's humorous story will show you that your big failure doesn't have to define your even bigger future!" --Kary Oberbrunner author of Your Secret Name, The Deeper Path, and Day Job to Dream Job "Successful people fail all the time. In The Flunked-Out Professor, Jon helps you understand that failure is a regular part of life and shares the six simple steps he took to go from a college flunk-out to an award-winning college math instructor. Along the way, he inspires us to reach for our own goals as well." --Cliff Ravenscraft, Business Mentor, Life Coach "The most successful people on the planet have failed too many times to count; the only difference is they use that to their advantage. In this book, Jon shows us that failure is actually a key ingredient to success, provided that we are willing to learn from it. It's true that success can sometimes be a painful process, but the rewards are worth the pain!" --Kris Pavone, Business Mentor and Life Coach, www.krispavone.com "J.K. Rowling describes the rejections she received before finally publishing her first Harry Potter book. Persisting in the face of failure can feel overwhelming. Jon's personal story provides practical steps to learn from our failures and become successful." --Dr. Robin Morgan Professor of Psychology, Indiana University Southeast
