Advice from experiences -

Tweet

Wanting to give someone advice as you see them struggling through something that you yourself struggled with is tough. You know exactly how they feel, for the most part and you want to help them get through this and see the things that you could not see when you were struggling. Although there is something to be said for experiencing the struggle for yourself versus taking the advice from someone who has experienced something similar. For myself this is so tough to take advice and not just muddle through experience on my own. When you see someone struggling and you could help them with by sharing your experiences it's a tough call, does the person struggling even want help or to hear your advice? Are they even accepting the fact that they are struggling or having an issue to hear your advice or thoughts on their struggle ? Why can some not be open to hearing advice from someone who knows a thing or two about their situation and how to make things better ? I am one of those people that have to experience and figure it out for myself. hmmmm - thoughts.
