48-Hour Giveaway: Quitter by Jon Acuff (10 Winners)

As I’ve mentioned here before, I’m a huge Jon Acuff fan. He’s hilariously funny, he’s an amazingly talented writer, and he has a way of communicating truths in a way I’ve seen few bloggers be able to do (see his post today, How to Be Humble, for example). Many of his posts have had a major impact on my life and have challenged me to step out do something different than the status quo.

I was privileged to spend the day with Jon, his wife, Jenny, and their daughters earlier this year when I attended Women of Faith in Indianapolis (yes, Jon was at Women of Faith. He and Todd Smith were a little outnumbered! :) ). Let me tell you, these folks are the real deal.

You know what I appreciate most about Jon and Jenny? They are all about celebrating other people. They’ve had some amazing accomplishments in their lifetime so far (Jon speaks all over the world, he’s a Wall Street Journal best-selling author, has a huge blog following, oh and he works for this guy named Dave Ramsey, to mention just a few things), but they are so down-to-earth and genuinely excited about others’ successes.

I ordered Jon’s book, Quitter, the day it was first available to pre-order, that’s how excited I was about it. And it didn’t disappoint. In typical Jon Acuff style, Quitter is engaging, hard-hitting, inspiring, and hard to put down.

While I’m not looking to be quitting anything in my life right now (well, except my bad habits!), I gleaned so much from this book. In fact, as I was reading it, I realized so many areas in my business that need tweaking.

If you feel stuck in your job, if you are struggling to find employment, or you just want to some direction on how to meld your passions with your profession, I’d highly recommend Quitter. It will make you think, it will make you laugh, and it will provide some excellent suggestions to help you find your “sweet spot” of doing what you love and getting paid for it.

Would you like to win a free copy of Quitter? Just click on the graphic below and type in your name and email address. 10 winners will be chosen and posted on Monday. This giveaway ends Friday, December 2, at 11:59 pm, CST.

why did it thank me for taking a survey? (survey monkey)

Amber November 30, 2011 at 6:15 pm

I was wondering this too!

Crystal November 30, 2011 at 8:25 pm

I just had the re-direct page incorrect. It should have gone here:

Sorry for the confusion!

Just letting you know the link for the giveaway entry form doesn’t seem to be working…Hope to be able to enter soon!

Crystal November 30, 2011 at 8:26 pm

I think it’s working, I just had the re-direct page wrong.

I was sent to survey monkey after I entered, it asked me to take a survey. Is my entry still good even if I didn’t take the survey?

Crystal November 30, 2011 at 8:26 pm

Yes. I just had the re-direct page incorrect. It should have gone here:

Jon spoke at our church last Sunday and he was phenomenal! I highly recommend reading his blog (I haven’t gotten to his books, yet).

Steph November 30, 2011 at 9:01 pm

I got this book for my husband for Christmas. I am having a hard time not reading it first!

Cris November 30, 2011 at 9:22 pm

This book is EXACTLY what my husband needs right now. He just lost his job, doesn’t want to do something he doesn’t love anymore and needs a lot of guidance on how to get there. Hope we win one!!!

Mandi November 30, 2011 at 10:19 pm

I am so excited to see that you love Jon Acuff too!!! I’ve been a huge fan of his for a few years now and I think he’s awesome!!! I’ve been thinking about getting this book for my husband… Thanks for doing this giveaway and getting this book out there! BTW, I love your site!

Gretchen November 30, 2011 at 11:09 pm

How wonderful! I went to college w/ both Jon and Jenny (who is the most gorgeous and sweet lady ever…) so I look forward to reading his latest. They are the best!!

Julie Shaver November 30, 2011 at 11:45 pm

I am a new fan of Jon Acuff, and I would LOVE to win this book!

Jason December 2, 2011 at 11:14 am

It’s great that you’re giving away Jon’s new book! I’ve read Dan Miller’s books, “48 Days to the Work You Love” and “No More Mondays,” and hopefully I’ll be getting to Quitter soon! If I don’t win this giveaway, the book is on one of my Christmas lists! Woohoo!

Angie December 12, 2011 at 8:31 pm

Well, I didn’t win the book, but thanks to your inspiration I did get a good deal on it! I purchased a deal on a cool site called everesave.com which included a $15 GC to Barnes and Noble, which I then used AFTER going through Ebates.com first to get 10% cash back AND I signed up for their (Barnes & Noble’s) free trial for free shipping with their Members program! SWEET! Thanks Crystal! I can’t wait to give this book to my Hubby for Christmas! Oh PS, if you buy it online at B&N its WAY cheaper than in-store, I only paid 12 something (for hardcover) instead of the in-store price of $19.99 !!!
