A lot of people look forward to getting suggestions from others which is also known as advise.
Here us a compilation of how to a handle advices thus advise about taking advice:
《 》Take any advice with a grain of salt.
This means that an advice is just that: an advice.
The person does not know you 100% and does not know the situation 100% so his/her advice cannot just be “plugged in” to your situation and voila problem is solved.
You have to take this advice, think about it and then listen to other people’s advices as well and then combine these advices with your own intuition and the known facts of the situation and then make a decision.
The decision is ultimately yours and the consequences as well. No on will be able to problems for you. Only they can tell you is what would they do in a similar situation.
《》 “The best advice I ever got was from myself. It was not to rely on other people’s advice, but to rely on my own judgment.”
《》 Trust yourself, trust your gut. (And follow what pulls you or interests you). In this way you’re being true to who you are.
We are all the “best expert” for ourselves. People can give you advice and it’s good to be open minded and listen. But it’s up to you to decide if it feels right for you. After all, you’re the one who will live with the consequences of your decisions.
Someone might be an expert in their field, but it doesn’t mean what they say is what’s right for every person. Learn what’s important to you and what feels right. Then follow that in every decision you make.
《》 Don’t agree with the well-known “advice” which is “If you don’t like yourself, no one will like you”. That is not true. More truthful is that if you don’t like yourself, you can’t like anyone else.
《》 “My advice to you would be … to listen to nobody, including me …” (“Lorraine Parade” by the wonderful Danny Wilson)
“I have given you my advice. You don’t have to take it.”
Hope you have been touched and now you have the real advice about taking advice.
