text: Asking more than one person for advice can help someone by seeing what others say or think. When I ask for advice I usually do go to more than one person, because I like to think of what people say or think as a poll. The more people suggest the same thing thing I will tend to do the most suggested thing, or just do the thing that was suggested by someone that is really important to me and I respect their choices. By getting what other peoples thoughts or say in the matter they can change my mind or, give me reasons not to change my mind. This can put subjects for the advice up to debate, by disagreeing or agreeing with someone's advice. Getting peoples thoughts and opinions can really change and impact me, leading me to take a different approach to something, effecting me to pick different advice from someone.
