What does your heart tell you?
I give alot of advice....good advice I hope. And I like to help people. It gives me a good feeling knowing that I could actually maybe change something in a person, make them feel better, or help them in their decision.
My advice contains reasonable facts that my mind tells me, my brain. I think about what would be best, what might help, what might be good. It's me thinking, being reasonable.
Nevertheless, when I need help myself, or find myself in a similar situation, I don't follow my own advice.
I let my heart guide me, let my stomach guide me. But can you blame me for it?
I ask my mom for advice, and she gives the best advice. And it's close to what I would tell someone in my situation. But still...it seems so hard to take the advice when your stomach tells you something else.
But nevertheless, it is often the people not involved who can give the best advice. But as soon as your stomach tells you something else again your belief gets crushed. I wonder what is true? What can I rely on more? I don't think I'll ever find an answer. In the past I got curshed by both. My stomach told me the truth, but it also was wrong before.
Now this blog doesn't really seem to have a sense I guess. I just felt like writing down my thoughts...maybe someone of you can share their own experience. Or maybe no one gets what I mean. But it feels good to have written about it.

I agree. People come to me for advice, but I'm useless when it comes to my own problem. I literally heaar myself telling myself what to do but I can't follow it. My mum is also great at advice, however she has problems following what advice she would give with her own problems.
Great blog :D

I get advice from my friend Fishy. She gives the best advice.

I'm the exact same way about my problems. I'll sit there and give my friends they best advice they can get, but if a situation similar to theirs arises where I have to make a decision on my own, I don't practice what I preach, so to say, and I either A. try and avoid the situation or B. make the wrong decision.

Many people who are good at giving advice have great difficulty when it comes to their own problems. I guess it's the difference between objectivity and subjectivity. When you aren't persoanally involved you see things clearly, there is nothing swaying your judgements. When it is your own problem, although you may see and acknowledge the truth, you just don't want to believe it or do those things that are most logical.
