How To Spot Dangerous Advice

I’ve been thinking a lot about the bad decisions I see people make, and even the bad decisions that I have made and I see a common pattern. First you have someone who is relatively uncertain, in a transition period of their life, and then they take the wrong advice. In this video, I want to clarify how to spot bad advice so that you don't wind up trudging down the wrong path for months or years. Here's what I've learned 1. Only take advice from people who have the kind of life you desire - you'll know because of what they've achieved, what the people who have followed their advice have achieved and what testing their recommendations proves. 2. When you have aspirations that no one around you has lived up to, you need to find a digital mentor. Get online, read a book, just find the person who has done it and study their path. 3. Develop a circle of friends who are supportive of your happiness, even if that means change. Cut the ones that only want you in status quo 4. Pick teachers that have strong morals. You can't learn a skill set without also picking up a life philosophy, so be careful who you let in Hope that helps you filter out the bad advice and move closer towards the kind of life you dream of :-) Subscribe to Charisma On Command: http://bit.ly/subscribeCOC Connect With Us.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the bad decisions I see people make, and even the bad decisions that I have made and I see a common pattern. First you have someone who is relatively uncertain, in a transition period of their life, and then they take the wrong advice.

In this video, I want to clarify how to spot bad advice so that you don't wind up trudging down the wrong path for months or years. Here's what I've learned

1. Only take advice from people who have the kind of life you desire - you'll know because of what they've achieved, what the people who have followed their advice have achieved and what testing their recommendations proves.

2. When you have aspirations that no one around you has lived up to, you need to find a digital mentor. Get online, read a book, just find the person who has done it and study their path.

3. Develop a circle of friends who are supportive of your happiness, even if that means change. Cut the ones that only want you in status quo

4. Pick teachers that have strong morals. You can't learn a skill set without also picking up a life philosophy, so be careful who you let in

Hope that helps you filter out the bad advice and move closer towards the kind of life you dream of :-)
