text: Next, asking for multiple people's advice gives a clearer perspective on what one should aim to achieve or do. If someone asked their parents where they should go to college, they are likely to be given a biased opinion based on which school their parents attended or where they want to see their child go to school, but if this person asks their teachers for an unbiased opinion, they can get a clearer idea of what they could achieve. Advice from only one person could result in the person seeking it being confused or making the wrong choice because of having only listened to one person when others could provide simpler advice. In brief, the main issue with asking the opinion of one person is that the person in need of counsel would end up misunderstanding the person who provided advice or doing something that one told them to do, not to help them succeed, but for the other's own pleasure. So, to make the right decision, it is wise to ask more than one person for advice.
