0:21 – Welcome!
0:27 – Who do you listen to? Everyone has an opinion, but should you take their advice? Check it out! Take advice from people that you'd want to change places with. If a person's life is a hot mess, why would you want to hear their advice?
1:14 – The same goes for running a business.
1:34 – We can seek feedback, but only get advice from the people who you'd want to change places with.
1:43 – Another example! When you want to get advice, get the advice from someone who has ACTUALLY done the thing that you want to accomplish. This will save you tons of time. They were the ones who figured out how to succeed, so take their advice.
3:08 – I have single, married, divorced friends. I talk to them about my life, but I am not going to talk to my best friend who is single about raising kids. I will talk to my mom who is married and has raised her children in a wonderful way.
3:56 – Think about "who" you are getting advice from. This is so important.
