No one knows you better than you and no one lives your life better than you. Pieces of advice are important in life as they help guide our path but that’s no reason to take a piece of advice from anyone.
Some of us are so interested in what people think about us and this attitude is wrong. You need to worry about what you think about yourself and not what others think of you.
