“MASTERFUL! This is Jon Acuff’s best work. Goals are so elusive and abstract, yet Jon does a marvelous job taking the complicated and making it simple and actionable. I fully believe this book is the difference between waking up ten years from now in a pool of regret OR waking up having accomplished your goals and living the life you have always wanted to live. It is THAT powerful!”
“This book will help you reach your goals, but it will do more than that. It will help you take responsibility for your life. If you’re looking for the inspiration and instruction you need to shape your own world, you’re holding it in your hands.”
“Twelve years ago, I read a draft of Jon Acuff’s first business book. I immediately emailed him and said, ‘Whatever other plans you have, reconsider them and start writing full-time. You’re wasting yourself, baby!’ I’m glad he took that advice to heart. If you’ve ever wondered if you’re capable of more, consider this book the resounding ‘Yes!’ you’ve been waiting for all your life.”

“The best book about goals I’ve ever read! Jon Acuff and All It Takes Is a Goal will help you achieve your greatest potential!”
“I have often said that the richest place on earth is the cemetery because so many people die with unrealized potential still in them. Maybe they were surrounded by people who didn’t believe in them, or maybe they didn’t even know they were capable of more. But in All It Takes Is a Goal, Jon Acuff brilliantly provides the road map to activating the potential within us. This book should be required reading for everyone with breath in their lungs.”
“If you know what it feels like to be stuck in a car, then you’ll appreciate finding someone with a big truck to give you a tug in the right direction. My friend Jon has written another terrific book, and his is a voice I have trusted in my life for years. In these pages he won’t push you around; instead, he will gently tap you on the shoulder, remind you of your goals, and pull you in the delightful direction you were headed before you became stuck, distracted, discouraged, or off course.”
“Captivating, relatable, and humorous from the first page until the last, Jon opens up the door to his personal experiences with an honesty that drives readers to accurately reflect on our own lives. More than that, he walks us down an entertaining and insightful path toward a better life in a step-by-step fashion, guaranteed to work no matter what our aspirations are.”
“Jon has the rare and wonderful gift of making you see perennial obstacles with fresh eyes. A cut above the ‘usual’ advice on goal setting, Jon’s fresh, hyperpractical, and humorous approach will make you think thoughts you’ve never had before and do things you’ve never done before. This is the breakthrough you’ve been looking for.”
