text: Although asking for advice from many people can cause stress and more decision making, it can help us to see other sides of the story and could help us in the long run. Sometimes self clarity is key, but it wont hurt to get a little advice from a couple of other perspectives.        Imagine you need to get advice for an issue you have been dealing with recently. Should you ask your mother, who knows a lot about the topic, or your father, who knows very little about the topic. The advice you get from each is going to be different. When it comes to advice, talking to more than one person is useful for, listening to multiple viewpoints, getting multiple options, and having access to a lot of different information.
