Unsolicited Advice is Criticism


Think about it. Do you give advice when you're not asked to? Do you hate it when others do that to you?

Advice given without solicitation looks a lot like criticism. Ask others if they want to hear your advice before you offer it. People will listen more receptively to your advice if you ask their permission first.
