There are fairly few events in one’s person’s careers, so even though you may know yourself, you don’t know much about all the places you haven’t worked at, all the people you haven’t worked with, and all the situations you haven’t been in.
And so is true of all the people you may take advice from.
So the best is to take as many advice as you can, and decide if you want to follow them or not.
If 100 people you know and/or find smart and have experience tell you that the move you are considering is a bad idea, it’s probably best to follow that advice. It may be that all of them are wrong, and you can still ignore them if you want, but you know at least you will be aware that most people think it’s a bad idea…
