Did you know the best advice you can get is your own?

So the next time you try and give someone else some advice. Listen in! You might neeed to hear it yourself.Did you know the best advice you can get is your own?
Not always,sometimes you need outside perspective.Did you know the best advice you can get is your own?
Yes. However, asking others to answer our question forces us to focus on answers we may know but a) not want to deal with or b) want consensus on. Basically we know the answer, for the most part, but are not confident about it. We also are not experienced in all aspects of relationships, so learning about others' experiences gives us a framework from which to gauge our own problems. Sometimes we also just want someone to encourage us to go forward with a solution. I have found that answering others' questions has forced me to clarify the answers to my own life questions. I actually help myself by helping others. I also feel that I can help others by sharing similar experiences so people do not feel alone and have the confidence to take their own advice!
I had a friend who wanted advice on whether to ROB a bank, kill himself, or just hold on for one more day to hope things got better. He took his own advice and killed himself. So much for your theory. Sometimes you do need someone else's opinion just to confirm your own opinion.
THEY DO SAY YOU LEARN BY YOU MISTAKES SO YOU LEARN NEXT TIME OLAY
So should we listen to you, or not?
Yep, that's true. But most people don't practice what they preach. It's easier to give someone else advice than actually taking your own advice.
you're soooooooooo right
thanks for that
You know I think you need to take your own advice on this one!
this sound reasonable...most people give advice but don't really take it themselves..
Thanks for the advise! Are you listening in as well!
Did you advise yourself on that? :)
Good advice xx
