The Biz Coach shares the secrets in response to a request for career advice from a reader:

“Dear Terry, I’m stuck in a low-paying job after not being able to able to sustain my employment after getting a student loan for which I’m paying over $180 per month. Your articles on student loans were helpful. I was recently honored to be asked by upper management to apply for a better paying job in my company but they hired someone else instead. I really feel hurt and disillusioned,” she wrote.

“Please accept my condolences about your company,” Mr. Corbell responded. “Your employer doesn’t sound like a best-management practices company.”

But, first, he offers her hope. “It might not seem like it now, but this is an opportunity for growth. There is always light after darkness.”
