[quote=Anonymous]Being laid off is only a problem if you think it is. 1. Take 1-2 days to wallow in self-pity 2. Work on your mindset and belief that it's possible there's a new job out there waiting for you (there are great resources out there such as books, podcasts, coaches, etc if you need additional help) 3. Create a plan/schedule for your job search. In addition to the job search basics (resume, networking, searching for opportunities, applying, interviewing, etc) be sure to include -time for daily exercise -additional time to step it up in housework -get outside the house at least once a day, ideally some networking events mixed in with a coffee shop, errands, etc -reach out to your network 4. Execute your plan If this doesn't work there are only two possibilities: -your plan needs tweaking -you aren't executing it Hope this helps. [/quote]
