-- Blaine WhitmanWww@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Well, I think the basic idea is that no advice is perfect in a constantly changing world!. It may have solved the initial problem, but as things change, that advice will create problems of it's own!. Here are some examples that i came up with: 1) You should study law *consequence - you study law, it takes you 5 years and by the time you graduate there is an abundance of lawyers in your city and you find it impossible to get a job!. 2) Order a Big Mac *consequence - you order a big mac, you're enjoying it a lot!. Until you see something from the salad bar menu that you actually like more!. At the time that you received the advice to eat a big mac it was the best possible advice, since you came into some new knowledge the advice got worse!. Hope this helpsWww@QuestionHome@Com Generally the best advice is the hardest one to follow through on!. It's usually the hard way of getting something done, as opposed to the easy, quick way!. I am thinking that he means with life situations!. Www@QuestionHome@Com |
