ADVICE OR NOT!!!

Good morning,
Recently I was talking with someone about going after their dreams and when to take and not to take advice from friends and loved ones. The thing about people who love is that they are always trying to "PROTECT" you. One of the things I noticed is that every time I went for something outside of my comfort zone with the exception of my wife and my mother, everyone who I knew told me NOT to go for it and came up with all kinds of what if's and how so and so had tried it to no avail.
I honestly do not think it is out of malice, but as you know most people do not like going outside of their comfort zone and that is all they know. So when someone comes to them with situations that requires them to step out of their comfort zone the easy thing is to just say "that won't work".
I am not saying do not take advice, but please think carefully before you do. Going after your dreams are tough enough without having "nay Sayers" around. Take peoples advice. People who you respect but in the end gather all the information and make up YOUR OWN MIND. In the end you are responsible for your future.
