How To Give Advice!

No, I cannot tell anyone how to tell a specific way to give advice. Although, I can give what I know and I hope you can take bits and pieces and use them in your own way.

I've been asked plenty of times, from different people, to give advice. Either in the fashion sense or relationships. It's usually all over the place.

Advice doesn't always work, because some people can get offended easily if they don't hear what they want to hear. That's usually the case.

  1. Be truthful. Nothing is more better than honesty, and every opinion counts.
  2. Listen to what they have to say. Every situation is a different one, so don't think you know everything about it.
  3. Look at it through their point of view. If you've been through a situation that's similar, think about what you learned from. 
  4. Think about the outcome if you don't give advice, versus the outcome if you do give your advice. All advice isn't bad, although most isn't good either. It's good to think about different situations this could branch off to, good or bad. 
  5. Show empathy. In most situations, it comes naturally. You'll be more interested and more inclined to help, and possibly might have a better say in the situation.
Most of all, outcomes will vary with different situations.

I hope you the best!


Please leave a suggestion or question! It'd help me out to figure out what to write about! Thank you!~

Once again, sorry for not posting. I've been getting away from family drama and spent a few days with my friend.
