text: The first reason I think it is important to ask for multiple opinions of advice is because you get different points of view. Sometimes one person's advice might not be the best choice for your situation. An example for this would be if you had to choose between going to a track meet or going to your sister's birthday party. If you get different points of view then it will help you make a well-rounded decision. Some people you ask might have been in a similar situation and have really good advice for which event to go to. Also if there are any people who have to choose between the 2 things too, ask them what they have decided on and why. All of these reasons will help you make a good decision.
