text: Lastly, asking advice from multiple people builds an open mind. When a variety of options are available it opens different doors for opportunities. Quoted by Generic_Name, "Ignoring others advice creates a narrow mindset." This means that only listening to one person's advice limits the opportunities that were available. For instance, in 5th grade when we were signing up for classes I asked my friend what performing art class I should take. She suggested taking band because that was what she was going to do, and even though I wanted to pick chorus, I decided to take band because she made it seem so fascinating. However, I ended up not enjoying band, but when I asked other people about their performing art classes, I was able to see different viewpoints and options. In the end, I decided on taking orchestra, and I really love that class. Which is why asking different people for advice helps make a better decision because it creates multiple options and forms an open mindset.
