text: The next reason that you should ask more than one person for advice is being able to listen to people who have gone through similar situations. People in a group could have gone through similar problems and could tell you what they did and how the outcome turned out. It would be really great for you so that way you can avoid using strategies they used that didn't work out. You can also pick up on the good things they did to handle the problem and use them to your advantage. Overall listening to multiple people who have gone through the same thing can be extremely helpful.
