text: Having multiple solutions to a problem or multiple options to choose from can be helpful. In certain situations it can feel like there is no good choice until someone mentions it. It also helps to have multiple options just in case one does not work out the way you wished it would. It is also good to have multiple solutions because then you can combine the best ideas and end up making the best possible choice. Getting many options from multiple people is good because each person has had a different experience than you and some are more knowledgeable than others. Some people have even experienced a similar choice or have guided someone in their life who made a similar choice. For example if you are trying to choose your career path you could ask an older sibling or friend that is in college, a college counselor, a teacher or a trusted adult. All of those people have already gone through a similar choice and some have also guided people making that choice. All in all it is good to ask multiple people for advice because you can receive multiple options and solutions. Other people's advice can also help you see the pros and cons of the options that you received.
