Jon Pritikin (born 26 February 1973) is a motivational speaker and founder of a non-profit organization known as "Feel the Power". ==Early life and education==
Pritikin, born in Rockford, Illinois to a Jewish family, grew up as a child battling many speech and learning disabilities. Due to these disabilities, he was taken out of class and placed with children who were mentally handicapped. He was bullied repeatedly and incurred abuse on a daily basis from other school peers and neighborhood children. Jon, as said in one of his speeches, would always sit alone because nobody befriended him. Jon was told many times by his school mates and teachers that he would never make it and this also contributed to a troubled childhood. In Junior High school, Jon became overweight which made his life even worse. However, his perseverance made it possible for him to continue and go on to college. Even though he was on academic probation and applied to numerous schools, he was finally accepted to Bethany University in Scotts Valley, California. Despite his speech impediment, Jon graduated from the university in 1995.
