«Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers.” Proverbs 24:6 NIV
The moment we stop learning is the moment we start declining. Life is a continuum, we are either growing or shrinking, and there are many areas in which it’s easy to believe we’ve “arrived”.
Most people think counseling is for when you’re in big trouble, some seek advice when the day-to-day gets tiring, but a very few lean on others for prevention. Those last ones are a minority, but those are the ones who excel.
Let us humble ourselves and seek advice in all times, but specially when we don’t feel we need to. That’s prime time for growth and avoid stumbling by neglecting, avoid unnecessary pain.
