About this listen

When New York Times bestselling author Jon Acuff got curious about tapping into his full potential, he launched a research study with Dr. Mike Peasley. They asked more than three thousand people if they felt they were living up to their full potential.

Fifty percent of people reported that 50 percent of their full potential is untapped.

That means half of us are walking around with half-lives. No wonder Twitter is so grumpy.

Imagine if every Christmas you only opened up half your gifts. You could see the rest—a whole pile of them in the corner of the room—but you never got to open them.

Would that make for a happy Christmas, a happy house, a happy job, a happy anything?

It wouldn’t, but what if it didn’t have to be that way?

What if you could have a fulfilling career?
What if you could enjoy a thriving marriage and strong friendships?
What if you could be in the greatest shape of your life?
What if each day felt like a gift and each year progressively got better?
What if you could use a single piece of paper to learn from your past, enjoy your present, and prepare your future?
What if you could escape the Comfort Zone, avoid the Chaos Zone, and live inthe Potential Zone?

That would be the best.

And what if all it takes is a goal?

Critic reviews

"Productivity expert Jon Acuff narrates his latest audiobook with spontaneity and energy that are absolutely infectious. Part of what makes him connect so strongly with his audience is his frequent use of off-script asides and personal stories--what he calls 'bonus content.' These impromptu comments, delivered enthusiastically, never fail to energize and entertain." (AudioFile)

Another good one

It is not often that an audio book is better than the paperback, but when you have the author (a professional public speaker) reading it, that's what you get. Jon is the man, so glad to have been able to hear him speak in San Antonio last year, and then listen to his books. Two thumbs up!

Hits you right where you are!

Once again, Jon hit me right between the eyes and in the heart with this one. His humor and well-crafted ideas become increasingly more relevant to my life the older I get. Homerun, A+, thoroughly enjoyed this, and I’m motivated to find and stay in the potential zone!

Best Book on Goals I've Come Across

The book is a must listen to book and it will help you understand how to go from easy goals to guaranteed goals by focusing on simple daily tasks like completing an action tracker.

“If you put in real effort, the results are math, not a miracle.” -Jon Acuff

Jon Acuff's “Best Moments List” activity taught me that the best moments in my life took real work and started off with small daily and weekly actions that resulted in success over time.

Acuff’s narration and special “audiobook only” content is priceless. I caught myself laughing out loud as I listened to some of the examples he shared, and I know that his lessons will stick with me because of his sense of humor!

Love the content and performance!

I am usually disappointed when authors narrate their books. Jon Acuff was amazing - energetic, conversational, and the bonus stories were terrific. The practical advice motivated me to start working on my best moments list and some easy goals mid-listen. I can't stop recommending it to friends.

This book will put a smile on your face and give you hope for your future

First off Jon is reading his own book and that makes it even better. His passion and transparency shines through in every chapter.
Not only does Jon talk about how you can be successful with goals, he tells you how to make it happen. He literally breaks every detail down so you don’t have to question, “Am I really doing this right? Can I even believe that I capable of doing this like he says?” You become a believer even before doing it but in your doing the steps to knock out your goals you experience the very wins he talks you through in the book and suddenly you’re not just a believer, you’re living it out and winning every game you’ve set out to play! So excited to continue refining my score cards and how I play the games I’ve chosen to make my life a string of greatest moments that result in a satisfying and impactful life for myself and others around me. This will be a book I return to time and again and recommend to anyone wanting to improve their life no matter what part it may be.
