From Ken Linder, an attorney and career counselor for some of the country’s most prominent journalists, comes Crunch Time: 8 Steps to Making the Right Decisions When it Counts. Making the right decision is not always an easy task, but Linder’s book offers logical steps to find the choice that is right for you. He uses many relevant scenarios to illustrate his points, such as the recent imbroglios of former President Clinton, Martha Stewart and Kobe Bryant. One really bad decision, he warns, especially if it involves a display of poor character can tarnish all of the good things you may have previously accomplished. Linder offers Strata-Gems at the end of each chapter to encapsulate his main messages and encourages you to celebrate and savor the constructive decisions you have already made.

Linda Stankard continues to be her own work in progress.
