• i am made constantly more aware of the advice i give.

  
  

  i have been given lots of crap advice, sometimes by people who are 'high up there' and should know best. but the truth is, sometimes people don't think from your perspective.

  
  

  what is good advice? good advice requires a lot of listening. before i rush to give advice, it's best to wait and listen. it's best to be patient anyway. it's best to ask questions rather than just dish out whatever is at the tip of my tongue. who says that what is good for me is good for someone else? 

  
  

  and who says that i've drawn the right conclusions from the experience so far? 

  
  

  good advice is always given by thinking 100% from the other person's point of view. this is to be etched in my head. perhaps i should tattoo it on my wrist.
