You may feel like you’ve lost control of your life, or that you’ll never find another job.   Plus there’s the stress of managing your financial responsibilities on a diminished income.While it’s natural to be anxious after a layoff, you shouldn’t let panic drive you to rash decisions. So says this week’s guest, Jane Jackson. Instead, give yourself time to heal and figure out the next step in your career.Jane suggests that you reach out to trusted friends and professional contacts to help you avoid catastrophic thinking and maintain perspective. These people can help clarify where you are where you are in life and what option s are available.Only after you’ve properly dealt with the emotional aspect of a job loss, should you create a plan to find your next gig. If you jump too quickly into the job search process, you’re likely to come across as desperate or needy to potential employersâ€"a dynamic that will only lead to more frustration on your part.This Weeks Guest: Jane Jackson Jane Jackson is a career and life coach who has worked with thousands of clients across Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Europe.
