NOTE

The Power of Advice vs. Feedback

Feedback is often backward-looking, with cheerleaders focusing on applauding your best self and critics attacking your worst self, which might not be actionable. Future-oriented suggestions and tips for improvement are more effective. Research indicates that seeking advice is more beneficial than seeking feedback as it offers broader perspectives and actionable guidance. Advice-seeking helps individuals find a coach who can uncover their hidden potential. Giving advice is also more flattering to the giver compared to giving feedback, making people more willing and better at providing advice.
