Do not keep collecting opinions after you have decided to ignore every uncomfortable one.
REFLECTION
REFLECTION
Asking around can become a way of shopping for agreement rather than looking for the truth. Once you have quietly ruled out any answer that would require changing course, more consultation only builds a record that looks like diligence. It also costs other people real time and can leave them feeling used when the decision arrives unchanged. Honest advice seeking has to include the possibility of being talked out of something.
If you are still asking, notice which reply would actually alter your plan. If none would, stop asking and say plainly that you have decided.
Whose advice do you seek knowing you will not take it?
Free, with nothing to buy inside it.
