The key to being successful is not only knowing that you need to seek advise but who is worthy of your listening. For sometimes those that appear the least likely to have good advise are the most brilliant and those who were brilliant are dummies on this subject. You must be able to see beyond the words they express and find out the motivations of such advisors as well as there exact knowledge/curiosity on this matter. Therefore keep a large file and be willing to seek many different advisors but in the end you will be the one who has to decide whether to truly listen and follow.
