Many, many times we are all faced with decisions that need to be made such as opportunities to choose between or courses of action to pursue. When you find yourself in one of those situations, go get advice from someone qualified to give it. Relying entirely on your own understanding is not very smart! And NEVER make a decision based on the way you feel about it at the time.

Don’t just guess which way to go either. Be open minded enough to accept the fact that your way of thinking on a particular matter may not be the best. Learn from adults who have already been there and who have already experienced the consequences of the choices they made. Every choice has a consequence, and many choices have life altering consequences!

Good advice and good counsel from those who are qualified to give them can be among the most valuable advantages you’ll ever have.
