When it comes to helping a friend or family member through a problem, the solution is always so easy - in a matter-of-fact, almost smug-like manner, the advice spews out so easily:Stay positive! In the moment we’re dispensing advice to others (unsolicited or asked), the solution just seems so darn obvious. But, often times, we’re the ones who need to stay positive/ditch the jerk and the solution doesn’t seem so easy to analyze/fix. Advice - so easy to dispense out, but how many of us actually practice what we preach? Meanwhile, advice for others just rolls out while I conveniently forget the confident knowledge and very reasonable advice I’d give to a friend in the exact same situation.
