Why no backup money?
Where is your pay going?

While you prepare you need to make a plan to cut your expenses or keep them in control as well.

Career change stress is real man - your brain just keeps spinning with “what if I don’t make it” thoughts, no? Here’s what works for our clients: Press Pause when that anxiety hits. Take 3 deep breaths and remind yourself - anxiety loves making up future problems that don’t exist yet. Pro tip: Instead of stressing about “job in 3 months,” just focus on “what can I learn today?” Your brain handles small daily wins much better than huge scary goals. Also, feeling confused while learning is totally normal - that’s literally your brain rewiring itself. Don’t panic if big data feels overwhelming initially. We have this WhatsApp community “Press Pause” where we share daily mental health tips for exactly this kind of career anxiety: https://chat.whatsapp.com/F6iWzeV56B64ltNhMafEkq You’ll figure it out! 💪​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

“This too shall pass brother”. At this moment you are lost and feel like this is the end of the road, but always remember life will always open doors for you. Don’t get disheartened, keep preparing and going for interviews, you will definitely get an offer in the coming few weeks. I wish all the good things in life for you.

Instead of keeping a plan for 3 months whatever you have learned so far , just start applying with that. And now apply agressively now that you have time everyday day atleast 5-6 hours you'll apply don't get lazy and lack in this. Consistently put 5-6 hours into applying every day. Wellfound and linkedin and naukri are your best bets
