Testimony vs. Advice

article image placeholderUploaded by @Marettaj
So don't get upset when someone is trying to talk to you or tell you a way to do things. But we do have to be mindful of how we try to give advice. We had someone talk to a friend of mine about who one of the other friends shouldn't date. Well, why should they date this person? And why would that person date this person? Who are you? What have you been through that caused you to feel that way?

What gives you the authority to share advice

And lessons that I give myself, or advice I give myself, usually is reflected within how others can perceive it to be something for them in terms of advice. Okay, hold on. No one likes to receive advice, especially unsolicited, right? Well, I mean, some people do like to receive advice, but I think some are just some are just more adept at giving advice in a way that's not as direct

I like that response because you're right. Unsolicited is a very important thing when you're talking about the advice or testimonial and then you're right, how you deliver it, you know, how it feels to the other person that is receiving it

Testimony vs Advice I normally base using either or off of what best supports the conversation and resonates with the audience.

When I decide between using testimony and or advice, I normally base that off of what best supports the conversation and resonate with the audience. In certain conversations, if I'm the listener, I would consider the credibility of the source delivering a testimony and or advice as well

You. Testimonial versus advice. Now, I have noticed that using testimonial versus advice, some people may still get offended if you tell them how, if you tell them how your experience, you can help you navigate through life. Or for example, at a job. Right. When I'm training new security guards, I use my experience to basically, I guess, educate them. But I'm just going to be honest half the time or outshit most of the time
