Episode 205: Be careful about asking for advice

PsycHacks

About this episode

It's important to be careful about asking for advice. Ask too many people and you're bound to get conflicting direction. Ask the wrong people and you'll receive bad counsel. In relaying a personal anecdote, I discuss some of the "do's" and "don't's" of asking for advice, including only asking help from folks who have what you want or who have a demonstrated ability to do what you want to do. I'll also share a much better question to ask your helpers to receive more practical advice.
