text: As simple as it may sound, information is the key solving problems. What does that have to do with making better choices, let alone seeking multiple opinions? Well, knowledge is essential in making good choices, and so much of it can be gathered by just asking for a couple of opinions. This can be supported even more if the person in question is more smart than you. People who are considered smart are normally amazing problem solvers and decision makers. By asking opinions of those who are smarter than us, understanding how to make good choices and solve problems becomes much easier. Knowledge can also be gained in asking from those who are wise. Wisdom can open a lot of doors, and definitely new ways of thinking. If wisdom isn't important in making good choices, why have wise men across history been some of the most looked up to and praised? Lastly, asking the opinion of those who are similar to us, such as a brother, sister, or best friend, can be very beneficial. Even though they may think similarly, listening to them can aid in finding holes in your own thinking. In conclusion, knowledge, the most important factor in making a good decision, is best gained by asking the opinions of others whether they are alike, or not.
