If you are stuck in the same position as you were in the past, people could help you learn from your mistakes. They could help you learn by thinking of a new idea that could prevent the same mistake from happening again. You are able to see where someone is coming from if you disagree on a particular opinion. When talking to people for advice, you are able to learn from other peoples perspectives, even if it interferes with you own.
