text: A choice is benefited by getting advice from multiple people because every person has a different background, thought-process, perspective, and their own experiences. This is because these experiences could have been similar to the one a person needs advice for. That person would have been through that situation before, so they'd know how to handle it. They could know the consequences and benefits in a side of that choice and tell them to the person making the choice, allowing them to weigh these benefits and consequences in order to make their decision. A person's background may shape their perspective on things to be different than another person's. Seeking advice from someone with a different perspective than yourself could open your eyes to something that you hadn't thought of or realized prior to receiving their advice. Also, a person seeking advice may be a more emotional thinker, but the situation that they need advice for doesn't suit the thought-process of a more emotional person, so they could seek the advice of someone with a different thought-process that fits giving advice on the situation better.
