Publisher's summary

Read by the author.

If you want to change your career and circumstances but aren't sure how, this practical guide from business leader Jeff Henderson will help you reevaluate your purpose and determine your next best step.

Navigating what's next in life—whether in your career, personal life, or relationships—often brings a level of uncertainty and anxiety and presents more questions than answers. Entrepreneur, speaker, and pastor Jeff Henderson has experienced this firsthand—first when he left his marketing position at Chick-fil-A to start a church and nonprofit, and then again when he left that nonprofit in the middle of a global pandemic to...well, he didn't know. He just knew he needed to make a move.

This insightful book outlines the process he used to determine the next best step for him and how you, too, can pursue more meaning and purpose in your life and work. Sharing personal stories and best practices he's learned along the way, he eloquently and practically guides you through the minefield of knowing what's next by helping you:

  • Take the Career Risk Calculator and discover if you're ready for change
  • Plan for change—both the changes you want and the changes you can't see coming
  • Cultivate "optimal options" in your life that will guide you to better decision-making when the time comes
  • Identify what to do and what not to do when making decisions about what's next
  • Exchange fear, confusion, and hopelessness for confidence, freedom, and purpose

The next chapter of your life starts today, with one simple step. And you'll know how to take that step because you know What to Do Next.

An accompanying questionnaire and diagram are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Just start where you are and keep going.

Loved it. Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can. A powerful reminder to just keep going. Lots of personal stories intertwined with great insights - many of them. Perfectly timed for me to listen to. And despite Jeff being a preacher, there’s no religiosity or preachiness - just a great message to help you move towards what’s next for you.

Binge Listened in One Day! Applicable Application & Practical Wisdom! Highly Recommend!!!

Jeff uses his real-world experiences to talk you through your own journey of decision making for What to do Next in where you are in your own life. Also, uses calming reassurances about your decisions being a single step of "next" as compared to a life-long answer to "next"; yet at the same time not glossing over the fact that life is a series of connected steps and what we do next indeed matters as we look at our long-term future.
If you read, "Know what you are FOR", you'll love "What to do Next"! If you haven't read either, I'd HIGHLY advise BOTH!
Additionally, if you are an Audible reader (as I am) and appreciate the author reading their books, you are in luck! Not only does Jeff read the book himself, but he includes "extras" that have occurred since the time the book was completed AND is is an AMAZING speaker, so the delivery will have you hooked!
Couldn't recommend more, especially if you are in a decision-making time of your life! Enjoy!!!

Excellent Resource for Major Transitions

I like that the book had a practical checklist of how to manage risk when changing. I also love that Jeff Henderson acknowledges our souls. Not everything can be quantified. There is space and wisdom in for spiritual guidance.

Real and Inspirational

Jeff reads his book as though he’s sitting on his porch having a personal conversation with the listener. I enjoyed the “extra content” for the listener. Excellent content developed from his experiences—Jeff’s a practitioner not a theoretician.

This was a great insightful listen

What to do next was a very insightful analysis of some common thought patterns and obstacles we face, when considering our “next” chapter, in career or life in general.
