After what seems like a lifetime, it is finally here: The paperback version of my book (Kindle version available 3/28).

Mastering The Game: What Video Games Can Teach Us About Success In Life

Here’s what others are saying about the book:

“This book is a great guide for those who are master gamers at home and wish to be as influential and competent at work. You’ll be amazed at how much you already know and how easy it will be to transfer critical business skills after reading Mastering The Game. At the same time, hiring managers and organizational leaders will find keen insight on the workforce of today and tomorrow!”

Marshall Goldsmith author of the New York Times and global bestseller What Got You Here Won’t Get You There

“Often times, the answers to our greatest challenges are hidden in plain sight. Jon Harrison presents an inspired look at how the most valued traits in business are already being practiced while playing video games – and makes thought provoking illustrations for how to draw out these ideas in the workplace. This book may hold the key to unlocking the significant potential of the next generation of leaders.”

Mark Panciera, President of The Pacific Institute, US Operations

“Jon has put into words what gamers have been telling their parents for years: videogames are good for you. He lays out how the skills & ideas our favorite videogames intrinsically teach us — overcoming obstacles, maximizing your strengths, and triumphing over your fears — can directly apply to your happiness and success.”

Chris Hatala, Final Boss, Games Done Legit entertainment

“In Mastering The Game, Jon Harrison shares his vision for how video games can be used to teach business and life lessons. Professionals and gamers alike will benefit from reading and applying these ideas.”

Kimanzi Constable, Author of the Publishers Weekly best-selling book, Are You Living or Existing? 9 Steps to Change Your Life

“Video games can teach us lessons in real life. Jon Harrison is one of the best at showing us how. Read his book.”

    CONGRATS! What an amazing feeling it is to hold a paper copy of the book you wrote in your very own hands.

      It’s surreal to be sure. Now I know why many others write multiple books – sure it’s hard work, but it is totally do-able. Thank you for your support – I hope this can be of great value to others!
