"You are about to read a book about true success -- success in college, in your career, and in life."
-Jack Canfield, co-author of Chicken Soup for the Soul
"I wish I'd read it back in 1960 when I headed off, clueless, to college. Great Stuff!"
-Tom Peters, the best selling business management author ever
"I'm an executive coach and behavioral consultant. I also facilitate career consulting workshops and conduct personal coaching sessions with students from the FIU Executive MBA program. I borrowed my daughter's copy of "Major in Success" and thumbed through it to pick up current information. I enjoyed the clarity and simplicity with which it is written, and shared the "Surefire 9 Step Interview Plan" with a group of Executive MBA students. I also used the "Future Perfect" activity. I highly recommended that people purchase a copy. I think the book is appropriate for everyone. I believe the lighter, more fun style can be helpful when you are considering a career change - a time when most people are in angst!"
-Valerie Taylor, Miami FL
"I really liked your book! It offered me a framework for reflective thinking on my part: past, present, and future. Your book is substantive, insightful, readable, and delightfully put together. As someone who has worked in academia for 10 years, I found this to be a succinct blueprint for success in college and life. I know that many people will benefit from your work."
-Bradley Cardinal, Ph.D. Detroit MI - 31 year old educator
"I got your book on Saturday and spent the afternoon reading it. Good stuff. Besides the excellent content, it has some other major selling points. It looks good, the layout is cool, it's actually interesting and enjoyable, it can be read in an afternoon (very important, 7 Habits took well over a month and was way to wordy), your writing voice is great (while Road Less Traveled is excellent, I kept feeling like my dad was speaking to me), and I never got bored with it. I am planning on working on the aspects that I haven't already mastered. I'd be a fool not to. Again - great book. Thanks!"
-Aaron Sherer, senior Graceland College
"Great book which has given me insights on majoring in success and methods of preparing me for it."
-John Butcherine San Diego CA - Sophomore/Accounting/19
