text: Asking more than one person for advice can help someone by giving them a selection. By getting other peoples opinions or advice you can get more selection, so more advice you can choose from. By getting one person's advice you might think, "Oh that is one way to do that, but I don't really like it that much." By getting more than one person's advice you might think, "Oh that seems like a better way to do that, rather than the other person's advice." You might not be able to think of advice for yourself so you go to others, sometimes, you knew the advice all along but just need others help to really get to it. Having more than one person's advice is good, because you can select what is best fit for you and your situation at the time instead of only having one advice that fits, but not quite right for you.
