Take That Advice and Shove It?
from Life, Lemons & LemonDrops Hosted by Greer McVay & Whitnie Wiley
Does a professional sports coach need to have played the sport they are coaching? Or does your neighbor make a million dollars before they start giving you financial advice? Should the unsolicited opinions and advice from people who have no experience or expertise doing what you're trying to do matter. At a recent social gathering, Life, Lemons & LemonDrops hosts Greer and Whitnie were peppered with questions about the podcast then offered unsolicited advice, from non-listeners, on what direction the show should take in the future. The conversation, while interesting, was simultaneously off-putting. You've been there. You're trying to accomplish something, and maybe it's completing your education, starting a business, or getting your health in order when someone who has never done what you are doing starts telling you the path to success. How much should other people's opinions factor into your decisions and actions, and how should you respond to the advice of others? In this episode of Life, Lemons and LemonDrops, Greer and Whitnie explore those questions and others, along with some general rules we live by on when to take advice and how to graciously (and kindly) move forward. #advice #opinions #kind
