#2110 Is Giving Advice a Good Idea? - Bobby Cappuccio

Yes, it is. No, it's not. Sometimes. Depends. To whom? What's the context? Did they ask for it? Are you qualified to give it? Could your "good advice" be bad for them? What "works" for me, might be a catastrophe for you. Or vice-versa. What's your reason for giving the advice? Could it create more problems than solutions? Do they want it... or are you just supplying it? Is it welcomed or resented? Giving advice (and receiving it, for that matter) ain't that simple or straight forward - especially when we're talking about an exchange between two people who don't think alike, who live in different realities (subjective or objective) and look at things through a different lens. Good intentions are not enough. "But it's for their own good", is a terrible starting (and often, finishing) point. This was an interesting exploration into a very common - but perhaps misunderstood - part of the human experience.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
