Lailah Gifty AkitaReject anything advice, which does not lead to your personal progress.
About This Quote
When you hear the word advice, you probably think of how somebody has some useful piece of information about something. However, this is not necessarily true. It may be the case that what the person is saying is potentially helpful, but if it doesn’t lead to personal progress then it can be completely worthless. If you want to take advice from somebody else, you need to be sure that they are offering genuine advice.
