🛑WE ALL NEED TO STOP TAKING ADVICE! 🛑

Giving advice is easy.

People are full of opinions.

[THREAD] ⬇️
Giving advice gives people the chance to talk about THEMSELVES.

And opinions are usually based on personal experiences, emotions, and values.

So how do you know what you're getting is good advice?
Sometimes the right thing to do is to make decisions for YOURSELF.

Nobody else.

Take a close look at the people you're taking advice from...

Are they in a position you want to be in?
Do they have something in their life that you genuinely want?

If the answer is no... take every single thing they say about that topic with a grain of salt.
- People don't know you as well as they think THEY know you.

- People tell you what THEY want you to do.

- People tell you what THEY would do.

- People tell you things based on THEIR limiting beliefs.
They're not you.

Two of the most detrimental things in my career were not getting a mentor early on and taking advice from people not at levels I wanted to be at.
People used to tell me that the life I was after was impossible, “too crazy,” or “too unrealistic.”

Then I started to realize that it was a reflection of them, not what I was capable of.

Because I slowly found out that subconsciously, “advice” can be secretly manipulative.
And if you continuously follow wicked advice, you will eventually wind up living someone else’s life instead of your own.

Figure out where you want to go and then reverse engineer precisely what it takes to get there.

That’s all there’s to it.

Got it?
