Why I Wrote The Adventures of Johnny Bunko

What You'll Learn in The Adventures of Johnny Bunko

Through the story of Johnny Bunko, a beleaguered account who meets a butt-kicking sprite named Diana, you will learn the six essential lessons of any satisfying career.
The lessons often challenge the conventional wisdom, because they rely less on strategizing and gamesmanship and more on experimentation and intrinsic motivation.
The six lessons are: 1. There is no plan. 2. Think strengths, not weaknesses. 3. It’s not about you. 4. Persistence trumps talent. 5. Make excellent mistakes. 6. Leave an imprint.
