Some career advice doesn’t change in any economy. While you are still working and secure, create your Plan B. Even in a high-performing environment, we are all vulnerable. After all, you might wake up one day and realize your job or your business is making you sick. This situation is extremely rare and I never advise anyone to quit a job without another one waiting. But it could happen.

Your Plan B includes provision for health insurance, alternative income sources and a clear idea of how you will support yourself for the next six months to two years. It’s scary to put all these components together when you’re under the gun. So if your job feels comfortable or you’ve just started a job, make creating a Plan B your first priority.
