I also wanted to share a recent conversation I had with a very good friend of mine about when to give advice. We were both discussing that it is an art to know when is the right time to give advice and how much. There is much more to be said about waiting for someone to ask you for your opinion then always giving yours.
When you wait for someone to ask for your opinion they are ready to hear the answer that at another time may go over deaf ears.
So even though the information you may have may be very useful, wait for it to be wanted before freely giving it away.
Please note that this is not in response to anybody giving me their opinion that I did not want. I am very happy to take people’s suggestions. This was just a conversation I had with a friend that I wanted to share.
