Expect nothing less than the bottom of the barrel from your ex. He/She is not going to make this easy, no matter who files for divorce.

G - Growth. See this as an opportunity to grow as an individual. Be it to go back to school/college, find a new/better job, get back self-esteem, today is the first day of the rest of your life.

I - Isolation: there will be times when you feel alone and isolated from the world around you. Some days you will feel that nothing is fair and no one seems to care or understand what you are going through. But please remember, to keep a smile on your face, and look forward to the positive things the next day will bring.

J- JUMP. Jump back into your life. Before all this happened you were someone's daughter, son, mother or friend. You were a professional, be it in management, a nurse, an enterpreneur (sp?), the CEO of your home and kids, or consultant (you get the point). Your life does not stop, you still have those hobbies, the people around you who love you and that does not change. Don't ignore that, your life and who you are does not end here. Jump back into that beautiful person you are inside and out.
