A person’s first instinct when they lose their job is to find a new one right away. But it wouldn’t hurt to take a few time off and reflect why you lost the job. Maybe there’s something you lack. Maybe there’s something you can improve. Maybe you can invest in yourself more and learn new things. Learn new skill sets. Explore and experience new more things that could help you land a better and more stable job in the future.
Unfortunately not everyone has the privilege to not work and focus on themselves that’s why they never improve in terms of the job they land on. Since they don’t have the time to focus on themselves and their skills, they remain only on a specific level and their wages are also the same.
considering that most of the job layoffs recently all about company improving their efficiency, sometime it's just hard to reflect when there's nothing you can reflect on, we know it very well that for the people who lost their job in IT sector, it's because tech winter where the company revenue can't keep up with paying salaries to many employee, we might argue it's because our skill aren't important enough for the company we worked in to get fired in the first place, but sometime even if you're doing your best, it's all comes down to company politics, job isn't as simple as providing necessary skill and get paid, there's politics going on inside the working environment.
