RE: Beware! Experts Do Not Always Give Sound Advice. (I'm No Exception)
too many people pull the wool over their own eyes just because some 'expert' told them to.
The experts will not help you figure out the pitfalls of blinding listening to their advice either. They have something to sell, and you're the sucker buying it. Always make sure you are considering your best interests. What is best for you? Yes, absolutely, listen to experts, but do not blindly listen to them.Sage advice my friend
Thank you, @liberty-minded!
People get hurt too. I saw this problem in the military, and I know it exists in police and security forces as well. It's a weird human psychological problem left over from earlier times I guess. We tend to blindly listen to those who step up to lead even when they are not qualified.
Storm Clouds Gathering calls it the "chain of obedience." Oh, you're a leader? Okay, I'll do exactly what you say, and I won't even question it. You're the boss! ;-)
I'd rather blaze my own trail than fall in line with the rest of the sheep!
