Bankruptcy can seem like a never-ending road. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Bankruptcy is usually only 3 years, so it won’t last for ever and you will soon be able to start rebuilding your life again.

Here are 2 ways on how to do it.

Stop being hard on yourself

In our experiences at Australian Bankruptcy Services, people often feel guilt and shame at having to file for Bankruptcy however that shouldn’t be the case.

People declare Bankruptcy for a number of reasons and often, it is because of external circumstances out of their control such as an unexpected death in the family or medical illness.

To help you with your life after bankruptcy, we advise our clients to let go of any negative feelings and make peace with themselves.

It is important to have a clear and positive mental outlook coming out of bankruptcy so that you can move onto a better financial future.

Evaluate

While you need to make peace with the past, you also need to assess what had happened to lead you to that point and learn.

• Could you have put aside more money for your emergency account?
• Could you have spent less on unnecessary items?
• Could you have borrowed money from family and friends instead of the bank to avoid interest fees you were unable to pay?

But remember, don’t be hard on yourself and try to remain objective.

The key here is to create a better financial afterlife rather than holding onto the past.

These two steps will help you rebuild your life after Bankruptcy and pave the way for a better financial afterlife.
