Who Says I Have Follow Sound Advice?

I had a laugh out loud moment when I read this quote by Lewis Carroll from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland / Through the Looking Glass. “She generally gave herself very good advice, (though she very seldom followed it).” I thought it sounded as if Lewis Carroll were talking to me. I am capable of giving great advice (especially for others). I am less than willing to apply it to myself. I’m not sure one has to be logical all the time in his/her decision making. Sometimes it feels right and we decide contrary to the prevailing opinions and advice. There are other times when we have to see for ourselves what will happen if . . .” Fill in whatever you want after the “If.” For me, it’s usually a challenge to the established way of doing things. It certainly has been the source of many adventures.
