Beware of people that have nothing to lose when they give you an advice. If you take those advice without asking yourself if they are good or not, then you can find yourself in trouble.
“Men are often biased in their judgment on account of their sympathy and their interests.”
– George William Norris
When the advice will not put them in peril, they will give you the first things that come up on their mind. With average source, you will never get more than average results.
People that have some kind of interest in your success, they will take the time to think about their advice to you. They have something to lose if you fail.
You can still find some really good people that will give you the best advice without any way of getting anything back from your success, but those people are sadly hard to find.
In the end, you are in charge of your success. Good or bad advice will not be the only factor.

I love this. I agree, and actually have found that more times than not, most people err too far on the side of caution, especially if they care about you. This comes from a place of love and concern, no question, but if you have an adventurous, courageous spirit….well, most people just don’t. So while it is always good to hear other perspectives, be cautious to listen to your intuition and heart when making important decisions…you ultimately know what you need and want to do, and living your life based on others’ opinions or fears or prejudices, etc. can sometimes clip your wings and lead you down a path of regret…
