text: Asking multiple people for advice is almost always a good idea. When you ask more than one person for advice you have different peoples perspectives of how they would have handled the problem. For example if you lost track of your watch and ask someone what you should do, they might say"Just buy a new one". But if you keep looking for advise and you decide to ask someone else, they might tell you to retrace your steps. In that situation if you had stopped and listened to what the first person told you; you might of never found your watch.
