Nothing gets our attention like an unmade decision: Should I accept the new position? Which schooling choice is best for my kids? How can I support my aging parents? When we have a decision to make and the answer isn't clear, what we want more than anything is peace, clarity, and a nudge in the right direction. The Next Right Thing offers a fresh way of practicing familiar but often forgotten advice: simply do the next right thing.
Conversational, not preachy, and draws from the author's personal experiences. With bite-sized chapters and simple suggestions, readers can find several new practices to make their day-to-day decision-making intentional and less stressful.
