Sometimes it can be hard to know who to take advice from, especially when people you love and respect have 2 opposing opinions.
Here’s a little test that might help. If someone is advising you to do or be something in particular, will they personally benefit from it?
Will they benefit financially? Will their ego benefit? Will they gain more power over you? Will it boost their image?
If one person will benefit from your decision and the other person has no personal stake in it…well, I know who I would be inclined to listen to.
This isn’t fool proof, just another tool in your discernment belt.
