Are You Taking Advice from the Wrong People? 🚨

Hey ,

Everyone has an opinion on how you should run your business, close more deals, or scale your success. But here’s the real question: Are you getting advice from people who have actually built what you’re trying to achieve?

One of the biggest traps in business and sales is listening to the wrong people—those who have never done what you’re striving for yet feel qualified to tell you how to do it. This week, let’s dive into how to filter advice, seek the right mentors, and ensure you’re not being led in the wrong direction.

1. The Cost of Bad Advice

The wrong advice doesn’t just slow you down—it can cost you time, money, and opportunities. Too many entrepreneurs and salespeople take guidance from:

❌ People who have never built or scaled a business.

❌ Friends and family who mean well but have no expertise in your field.

❌ “Experts” who talk theory but have no real-world experience.

   •   Pro Move: Before taking any advice, ask yourself: “Has this person actually achieved what I want?” If not, thank them and move on.

2. The Right People to Learn From

You wouldn’t take fitness advice from someone who’s never worked out, so why take business or sales advice from someone who isn’t winning in that space? Surround yourself with people who:

✅ Have proven success in what you’re trying to achieve.

✅ Challenge your thinking with real-world experience.

✅ Push you toward growth and execution.

   •   Action Step: Identify three people who are where you want to be and start following their content, reading their books, or connecting with them directly.

3. How to Filter Advice Like a Pro

Not all advice—even from successful people—is right for you. Here’s how to filter it:

1️⃣ Does it align with your goals? If the advice leads you away from your vision, it’s a distraction.

2️⃣ Is it based on experience or opinion? Always ask, “When have you done this successfully?”

3️⃣ Is it actionable? Good advice provides a clear path forward—not just vague ideas.

   •   Pro Move: The best mentors won’t just give advice—they’ll ask questions that make you think critically.

5. Your Success Depends on Who You Listen To

Every time you listen to the wrong person, you risk slowing your momentum. But when you take advice from the right people, who have actually walked the path, you shortcut years of trial and error.

This week, take a hard look at who you’re listening to and make sure they’ve actually earned the right to give you advice.

Because in business, the right advice isn’t just helpful—it’s the difference between winning and losing.

To your success,
