On a scale of one to ten ( ten being the highest) who out there has taken the advice of someone on here, acted out on it, and found it to be successful?

I've taken advice plenty of times from people who had knowledge on something I was asking about. Your category is Marriage and Divorce and thats a step you only you can decide on,no one walks in your shoes,we all have stories about relationships but in the end no one can decide for you.

Yeah, a good example would be that guy on here that has like nearly 2000 "best answers". He's probably on "Leaderboard". I was like "wtf" so I clicked on his name to see what kind of answers he gave - I can tell you, 90% of his answers were all copied and pasted from other sources, and somehow, the askers chose his answers to be best. I think that is B.S. I'm sorry. I agree with you .. this is like a personal advice giving forum. If I wanted REAL answers from professional sources, I would've looked for them on Yahoo or Google engines. I know, it's pretty dumb.

Yes, I have, they were friends of mine, and still are.\n\nI decided to be direct, and not react defensively; so I said, "that's your story, and I've got mine."  then walked away with confident attitude.

One piece of advice I got from a financial planner was to make sure that if I did participate, that I really liked and believed in the product.\n\nIf what you are being asked to promote is something you like, use and believe in - that makes a big difference.

Let  me  say  something to you that  I wish I could  tell you I  thought up myself, but I didn't.  It  was something  a very very wise  person   once   said...... .     Nobody EVER  got something  right, who hadn't   got it  wrong a  few times  first.   What  I will say that  did come from  me, is this:    The people  who  have  always  ended up being the most  admired in this world,  are the ones  who  struggled  and  struggled  with something for a  long time,  and  nobody believed in them ,  and they  were  mocked, and made  fun of,  and laughed  at,   or insulted.    But    they never quit  They just  KNEW somehow,   that sooner or later  this thing    they  were   working so hard   on,   was  going to come right   in the end.\n                                              It  doesn't matter if  you  never "invent the wheel"  or   find   some  fantastic  new  thing  that    will make you a  ton of money.      It's just  the  same for a person   who simply keeps  on  trying to be better  at this business  we  call "living".    My dad  used to call it stickwithitness"  he   talked about it  so much when I  was  young,  that  in the end,  every  time  I  duffed  something up, or  I  just  wanted to  quit,   I could hear my  dad  say that word   "Stickwithitness"-    and  that  was enough to make  me   grin,  and  think  to myself "Oooohkaaaaay   Dad,   watch  this...." Then I'd  just  keep on going.     \n                                                 So my  advice is  this...   any time   anybody  laughs  at you or  makes  fun of you for  "getting it  wrong"....  screwing   it up.      Just smile to yourself,  and be  encouraged to keep  right on  going,  because, you  see,  people  who mock others,   usually do it because  they never had  what it  takes to "stickwithit"   and what they  really  want  is  for YOU  to fail  so they don't  feel so much alone.

It was Michael Caine.  I remember watching an actress on Jay Leno that said he gave her that advice as well.  She said something about the book that he wrote that he put that advice in.

Cheers guys!  Sounds like the ones with the wit do win after all!\n\nI concur, a mate that can challenge you intellectually is the best you can find...and that just makes them all the more good looking!

Oh my God!  I am a tremendously intuitive and spontaneous person.  I have switched not only jobs, but also careers several times based on intuition.  So far, so good!  Following my heart has led to great success.  Some time ago I learned that you should do what you love and the money will follow.  Even if the money doesn't follow you still get to do something you love, so that ain't half bad.  As far as my personal life goes, well I'm married and I think anyone who is married has to admit that intuition played a large role in the decision to take the big step.  Again - So far, so good!  Of course my intuition and my inclination to follow it has also created some problems from time to time.  I have on rare occasions placed too much trust in the wrong individual, but it hasn't bothered me that much.  After all once I figure it out I don't make the same mistake again but they have to live with themselves forever.

That depends on the guy... at my peak I was able to do it 5x... But I'm sure that others can do it much more.

Have you thought of becoming a Virtual Assistant and going into business doing this for yourself?  That is what I have done and it has worked out great!  You get to do what you love and help others run successful businesses as well. What could be better?

My mother is one of the smartest, wisest and rational people I know. The times I did NOT take her advice are the times I regret. She is a wonderful resource for information because she loves me and has my best interest at heart. If I fail, she fails. If I succeed, she succeeds. I may still bolster her advice with that of an expert in whatever field we're talking, but mom never claimed to be an expert at anything except caring about me. Sometimes, that's enough.

Absolutely -- Best thing I ever did.  \n\nIf you can get your friends, family and significant other to support you in this, you cannot fail. \n\nGood luck!
