Good afternoon guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day and weekend. I hope you had a great week at work.

Yesterday, I wrote about the need to follow good advice. So I'll quickly run through it before moving to today's article.

Advice is important in life. There are some decisions we can't make without the role of advice. There are times when the information we have is not enough to help us make the right decisions. There are times when we need to get a second opinion from someone who knows better. But when we seek for advice, we must take into account the person we go to for advice.

When someone offers advice, we should consider why they suggested that we do those things in that particular way. Regardless of the reason the person gives us, we should make ensure that the person offering us advice has our best interests in mind and is a trusted person. Sometimes, there will be many people offering advice on what you should do and shouldn't do. And also, you should remember that not everyone has your best interest at heart, some will have a bias in their advice.

When making our own decisions, we must take recieve advice from people we believe that they don't have a bias that's they're trusted. This doesn't mean you only take advice from people who like you or your idea. It simply means you should only trust those who are only out for your good, that's people who want the best for you.

Advice is needed in our daily lives. Everyday we're faced with the need to make decisions that are right for us. We might need to rely on the advice given to us by our family, friends and people we trust and whenever they give us advice we should always follow it.

Today, I'll be writing on the dangers of ignoring good advices.

There is a danger in believing you know enough. You will find yourself taking wrong decisions and even worse, you may find it difficult to recover from those decisions. Sooner or later, people are bound to realize that they have been ignoring good advices and this will make them take corrective measures. Even if they start taking correct decisions, there is no guarantee that they will not repeat the same mistakes.

By ignoring good advice, you not only put yourself in danger of taking wrong decisions but also in danger of doing things in an improper way and this may cause problem for you.

When you are required to make a decision, it is vital that you take into account the good advice. However, many people end up ignoring good advice because they feel they know enough already. There are those who suggest that ignoring good advice is not good for the health. They are correct because it may cause you problems that are hard to solve.

You should accept every piece of good advice that you receive. You need to realize that making decisions about your finances, your relationship, your health and other important aspects of your life require serious consideration. Good advice can help you put this consideration into perspective and remove the guesswork from important decisions.

The state of mind that any decision maker is in while making a decision is called rational thinking. If you are not in a rational state of mind, then you will make irrational decisions. This is because you are influenced by emotions and this affects the way you think.

Later, when the emotion wears off, you realize the irrationality of your decision and that is why people regret their decisions or feel unhappy about themselves after making certain decisions.

Even if you are not influenced by emotions, it is still possible to make bad decisions because you might not get all the facts or even fail to understand the facts correctly due to poor understanding of the subject.

Therefore, it's best to follow good advice.

Thanks for reading through. Have a great day.

Personally i listen to every advice people give to me, i don't criticize it, but what i do is that i sit back and have a rethink about it, i try to measure it up with my current situation and if it won't help in any way, i drop it and move on.

this can also be summed as having a mentor is wonderful and listening to their advices and from renowned people and finally creating or own way is the key.

You're right about good advice... Especially from older people... There's a saying here that what an elder sees sitting down,,,a child cannot see standing on the tallest tree... Nice write up...

Sometimes we mistake bad advice for good because it's what we want to hear or we mistake God for bad and the thought of doing any of that scares me

I'm not good in following advice too, I mean I sometimes ignore it and that gives me a moral lesson. It's really bad when we reject those good advices however, we must know to distinguish whether the advice is good or bad.
