1 Acknowledge
You may find yourself experiencing a range of emotions, don't let that override you. Seek out professional help. Though you may be tempted to keep your status a secret, friends, and family can’t begin to help if they’re not aware "Don’t Ask, Don’t Get" If you find that you’ve become hopeless, reach out to a counsellor or talk to your friends and family" Everything happens for a good reason"
2 Get Your Finances in Check
This is the perfect time to create a financial plan . Your goal for a budget while unemployed is to save money and reduce your overall expenses. Priorities your need to create categories for your spending such as food, car, rent/mortgage, pet care. Allocate money to each category and stay within the limit you set, small cost cuts would be a great idea. Avoid alcohol and smoking.
3 Stay positive, be a champion
It's okay to lose that job, that is not the end of your life. When you no longer have a job to report to every day, you can easily lose motivation. So don't give up your daily routine. Following a set schedule will help you be more efficient and productive. Don't stay indoors go out and have a good network. Instead of trying to do everything at once, set priorities for your tasks.
4 Accept reality
Rather than dwelling on your job loss and the unfairness, how poorly it was handled, the ways you could have prevented it, or how much better life would be if it hadn’t happened try to accept the situation and assess your marketable skills. The sooner you do so, the sooner you can get on with the next phase in your life and explore new opportunities.
5 Look for alternatives
How many career alternatives do you have? The answer is plenty. However, the reality is that unless you take proactive steps, it will be difficult. Adding new skills would be a better idea. How about some freelance work? Getting a part-time job in an industry where you have long desired to work can help you gain invaluable industry experience.

6 Start something your own
Starting on your own is good! Running a business is not a 9-5 job. If you’re going to go into business for yourself, you must first decide what type of company you want to create. Regardless of what type of company you create, just remember that passion will only get you so far, hard work and determination "never give attitude" is just as important as cash flow.
