People love giving their advice when asked for it, and also when no one asks for their advice - that's how people boost their self-esteem.
But even though some advice can be actually helpful, lots of them don't work - but why?
Let's find out why you shouldn't always rely on other people's advice.
Different Situations
What worked for someone else might not be suitable for your specific situation.
People's circumstances can vary a lot, so a solution that worked for them may not apply to your problem.
Personal Preferences
We all like different things and have different tastes.
Advice that one person finds helpful might not align with your personal preferences or values.
Individual Goals
Your goals and priorities may be different from those of the person giving advice.
What's important to you might not be the same as what's important to them.
Timing
Timing matters too. Advice that was good for someone at one point in their life might not be relevant to your current situation or stage in life.
Resources
You might not have the same resources or opportunities as the person offering advice.
What they could do might not be possible for you due to limitations in time, money, or other factors.
Trial and Error
Sometimes, you need to try different approaches to find what works best for you.
It's like finding the right key to unlock a door—what worked for someone else might not fit your lock.
Conclusion
When listening to someone's advice, always think twice before following it - because it can be completely irrelevant for you. Trust your experience!
