> Crowdsource your career decisions.
This is just bad advice, other people will give advice they wish they had been given, it is a mistake to confuse this with advice thats useful to you.
At the end of the day your career is too big and unique to you for anyone else to give informed, accurate or useful advice on.
With hindsight you can cherry pick the good advice from the bad, the informed from the uninformed, making this advice seem useful. But when actually trying to make a decision you have just flooded yourself with a lot of advice that may be helpful or harmful and you have no idea which.
I think the rest of this advice has the same issue. Advice that sounds good given hindsight, not so useful without it.
