Why do they call it loosing your job? You know where it is and so do they, but they just asked you not to come there anymore. What do you do? You have become use to coming in and doing your tasks at this same location for a number of years, and now you feel like you have no where to go. That is where you are wrong. You are talented and have a number of skills to offer your next employer.

The first thing you must do is get rid of the defeated mentality that you might have picked up when they let you go. I like to saying, “Let you go” because it gives you the notion that you can move forward to new opportunities. There may be a better job out there for you than the one you just had. But you will never know unless you go out there and find it.

Stop holding yourself back, get out there and start networking. You have to let your friends, and people you meet know what type of opportunity you are looking. This is where your 30 second promotional pitch comes in. Some people call this an elevator speech because you must get the person you are speaking with interested in what you have to say and able to remember it in about 30 seconds. We will discuss this more in depth in future posts.

Remember, do not be discouraged. You have been let go for a reason, and that is to find a more fulfilling position that will allow you to use your talents and gifts, providing you the opportunity for you to be more passionate about your job. It is this passion that you have which will fuel your desire to be the best you can be, and everyone in your presence will know it.
