On: Why doesn't advice work?

[randcraw]

Unsolicited opinion is just noise. If someone wants advice, in addition to the conclusion, they need to hear the reasoning and contextual facts that make that advice useful and reliable.

Everyone knows that 95% of advice is opinion. So they filter it out. That's why almost all advice doesn't move the needle.

100% of advice is opinion, but that doesnt mean it is bad. I heavily value the opinion of individuals I hold in high esteem.
