Disregard Advice That Don’t Match Yours

I disregard much of the advice that’s given to me from people that are not explaining that they’re living in the same world. If they talk about how things come easily, I don’t even consider that information in my decision set. However, if people talk about how they struggled, and it felt like they were the only one, I place a great deal more on their information because it better matches my experiences. Just be careful in where you get information, as often we are playing in different playgrounds.
