Don't Take Advice From Anybody

Don’t take advice from anybody

Who is playing a different game

Who has different goals, abilities, and desires from you

And few things about you are the same.

 

Their game may be to save money

At the risk of living well

To you that may not be a life worth living

In fact, it may even be a living hell.

 

Their game may be to seek adventure

By going from one thing to another

You may prefer a more predictable path

Anything else may seem too much of a bother.

 

They may be cut out for high volume work and chasing money

You may be cut out for more meaningful work, and a sensible pace

Don't try to copy their 'say yes to anything’ approach

Think twice before you jump into an unhealthy rat race.

 

They may, when temptation strikes

Go against the moral grain

You may have clearer ideas of right and wrong

You should continue to stay in your lane

 

Think twice about taking advice

From someone who is not like you

Do you really think you can live someone else's life?

If you know you wear different shoes?

 

Some people may prefer to be lone wolves

You may like the certainty of a commitment

Don't envy the lone wolves their freedom

Their way is not better, just different.

 

Don’t take advice from anybody

Even if it they seem to know more, and seem to be better adjusted than you do

Take your own pulse of everything

Accept only those ideas which make sense for you.

 

You have your own goals, abilities, and desires

Your circumstances are not the same

So before you jump in and take advice from anybody

First thing to do is ask yourself,

"Am I playing the same game?"
