Hi, I've been there and it can be a pretty scary place. The first thing I'd say is that "immediate" may be the tough part here. I think the good news is that you've set an achievable goal at $1,000/month.

I asked a similar question of James Altucher, author of Choose Yourself, and he suggested -

1 - Apply to be an Expert on Clarity.fm (so here I am!)

2 - Reach out to your existing network

3 - Think about what you're good at doing and start a blog to write about it

I'd add to the list -

4 - Read "Choose Yourself" by James Altucher

5 - Check out becoming a coach on coach.me

I'd say of the 5 points in this list, #2 is probably the quickest path to income. That said, I'd still plan for a 30-60 day payment lag, by the time you find a secure a paying gig/project.

I personally found it difficult to break the ice and ask for help from my network. However once I did, was rewarded by being reminded how supportive my network is, as many of them have been where I was and were more than happy to help!

Along those lines, I'd be happy to offer you a free 1 hr call to talk further. If you're interested, please drop me a line via Clarity and reference this question. Sometimes it's helpful just to be reminded we're not alone in experiences like this.
