Forehead Smack: Quitter, by Jon Acuff

May 7, 2013 Kim Tracy Prince Leave a Comment

It only generates obscene amounts of hurt and frustration to pursue a 40-hour-a-week dream in a week that currently has four hours of available free time.

Yes. That.

I have many more observations about what I’m reading here, including the one that I wanted to hate this guy from the start because he started a blog and just a few years later is a well-known author and speaker. Shazam, like magic. But so far I can’t hate him. He’s charming and self-deprecating and his famous blog took advantage of a popular gimmick. Well played, Acuff.

I’m only on page 109, and there’s more where that came from. Tune in sometime in the near future for the rest of my thoughts about this book. In the meantime I’m going to practice being grateful for what I have instead of focusing on what I don’t have, and what I want. I don’t even know what that is right now anyway.
