text: Firstly only asking for advice from one person is only going to allow you to achieve a narrow minded thought process. You will only be thinking about one possible solution, blind to the fact that there are endless possibilities. People all have different perspectives, experiences and beliefs, meaning that they all have different ways of examining a problem and looking for a solution. So if you take advice from a variety of people they may be able to notice possibilities you had not even thought about. I have been in a situation where I was trying to save up money for my sister's birthday. I thought that I would never be able to save up enough money for her gift, but after asking for advice from my parents and other siblings by putting all of there ideas together I was able to think of a solution to save enough money for my sisters gift.
