What next? You've lost that job.

Sit back and reflect. See friends and people you enjoy. Don't move to fast on taking another position. Like rebound marriages, rebound jobs can be dangerous.

You need to take a break and begin your grieving process. Until you do you'll find yourself at odds with yourself. Talking is a part of this process. Reading books can be helpful but not the only way. Read for pleasure.

Start lining up and finding places to network. There are many calendars out there. Check out local chambers of Commerce, job fairs, seminars on using social media in your search

Get connected in LinkedIn, FaceBook, and Twitter.

And most of all get out of the house.
