A wise man once told me that in every defeat you should do 3 things.
1. Learn a new skill
2. Network
3. Read a ton of books

1. Learn A New Skill
With access to the internet you have entire library's at your fingertips. You can learn vitally anything you want if you have the drive.
Access to some classes cost money while others including classes from MIT are free.

2. Network
Whether with an old associate or meeting a new contact.
When/if you plan on switching jobs don't send out a mass email. That's just spam. What you should do is target people who you've helped (hopefully) over the years.
The best way to network is when you meet someone is to help that person. Don't just give out your business cards or do the dreaded tactic of connecting on social media and then saying nothing (I get that all the time).

3. Read A Ton Of Books
You can either read books on your particular field (I guarantee you there are several) or you can read a wide variety of fiction and non fiction.
