Laid off? Now what?

I know a number of people that have been laid off and they find themselves in a state of emotional limbo. As hard as it must be (believe it or not I have never been laid off), think about this change in your life as an opportunity to do something GREAT and new! A fresh start can be just what you needed.

I was reading this article(http://www.entrepreneur.com/magazine/entrepreneur/2009/february/199706.html) about people that were laid off and took that opportunity to start their own business. I find that so exciting! Remember when you have your own business the sky is the limit for what you want to do. I know there is great risk in being your own boss, but where there is great risk there is also great reward.
