Acuff has a relaxed, conversational style with some humor sprinkled throughout that didn't become annoying or cloying. Quitter is a book designed to get you headed in the direction of your dreams. Its good advice for those just starting to pursue their dreams, and full of good reminders and advice for those who are already in action and perhaps becoming frustrated with their progress. There are no overnight successes.

The only annoying thing to me is his concept of the Nebraska Years. These are the years when, say, if you're a speaker you travel all the way to the wilds of Nebraska to speak to a group of 30 people. Years after you've made it and are now speaking to crowds of thousands, you can look back on your Nebraska Years as your humble beginnings. Okay, so the idea came from an actual experience of someone he knows who is just starting out...but can't Nebraska ever catch a break? Can't the state be glorified as the State That Gave The Young Speaker Her First Break? I am, in part, joking, but friends know I'm a huge advocate for the great, maligned state of Nebraska. But I digress.

This is a motivational book that should get you thinking about your own life and help you focus on staying present rather than living in the future.

And, yes, he is related to Roy Acuff. ( )

Easy read
Mostly things already know but never hutts to have a reminder or a way to reframe things ( )

A good self help book that works for all adult ages. The author injects a level of humor that adds to the enjoyment of the book. Like many books in the same genre, it tends to be a little light on specifics, but there's plenty there to think about and act upon. ( )

كنت سأكتب عرض بالانجليزية لأنها لغة الكتاب، ولغة الاستماع اليه كذلك . لكن من جهة اخرى وجدت أن العرض بالعربية قد يثير بكم الحماسة للاطلاع عليه صوتيا أو ورقيا.
الكتاب للوهلة الأولى خشيت أن يكون كتاب آخر من كتب التحفيز الذاتي الفارغة، لكنني اكتشفت العكس عندما استرسلت بالاستماع /
الفكرة الاساسية فيه هي اضاءة على حياتك العملية ، هل انت في وظيفة تقتل احلامك؟ هل تستمر؟ هل تترك الوظيفة ولماذا؟
جون اكفّ مدون وكاتب كان يتأرجح بين الوظائف واتقن الاستقالة في كل منها، ولكن تجربته هذه جعلته يركز اكثر على أهمية الحفاظ على وظيفة نهارية تضمن لك الدخل ،والامان ومواصلة العمل على تحقيق حلمك المستقبلي اياً كان .
الكتاب مليء بالامثلة من حياته الشخصية وحياة من حوله، وبعض النصائح حتى تصل للفصل الاخير الذي يقول لك فيه يمكنك الاستقالة ولكن ، بعد المرور بمجموعة من الاسئلة المهمة . هل انت مستعد ؟

يناقش ايضاً نقطة مهمة ، انك لا يجب أن تكون متزوجا وابّ - كما هو - لتبحث عن استقرار وظيفي وتخاف على حياتك المالية، انت الآن حرّ وهذا افضل للتخطيط ، يشجعك ايضاً على عدم انتقاص قيمة احلامك . .

اعجبني ايضاً فصل تحدث فيه عن مدونته وكيفية قامت واصبحت مصدر لدخله ، كيف تخدمك الشهرة أو تدمرك في التدوين . . لا يمكنني حصر المرات التي اوقفت الاستماع فيها لكي اسرح وافكر في حياتي أنا ..
كتاب خفيف جدا وجميل ، اجمالي ساعاته لا تتجاوز الخمس ساعات.

لكنني سمعته على مدى عدة اسابيع بسبب انشغالي. .

جون اكف نبهني إلى احلامي، وان الوقت قد جاء كيّ اتوقف عن انتقاصها والتقليل من حجمها . ( )
