text: People think that just one person is enough to ask for advice but what if the advice is not good and it very one sided or a mediocre advice? If you ask for advice and the advice is not good then asking only one person is a lose-lose situation and then you start to lose trust in that person because of the failed advice and then something might happen since the advice has failed. If you ask multiple people what they say you can combine your's and there's and have a more than decent advice then have a set up to fail advice. If you are being lazy and only asking one person for advice it is more of a lose-lose situation then a win-win situation because of the failure that is awaiting you and even if the advice works it will not work as well as asking multiple people for the same advice. I have only asked one person for advice before and the advice ended up not working and then something bad happened after because of only asking one person and evidently I found out that asking more people is more efficient and better than asking only one. In summary when people act lazy and only ask one person instead of asking more there is more of a loss then gain and that is why asking the same question to multiple people are efficient.
