text: The second reason that seeking multiple opinions can help someone make a better choice is that it allows he or she to be able to rule out the bad choices. When someone receives advice from multiple people, he or she will probably hear the same opinion twice. Usually if someone hears the same opinion twice, then it is more than likely a good choice. If he or she does not hear any of the opinions that he or she had thought of, then the opinions are probably not going to be good choices. When I am receiving advice, it always relieves my stress when I can rule out a bunch of choices. Receiving multiple opinions can save you time, because it helps rule out the bad choices.
