Why Don't People Listen to Good Advice? (161 hits)
I had a student once who went on a coaching course. One of the other students on the course suggested she should leave her husband due to his drink problem, which was wrecking their marriage.
I can understand her not wanting to leave him.
What I have a problem with is the reason she gave. She told me she refused to listen to this advice because it was not appropriate for him to give it as a coach!
Have you had similar issues? People who can't see the forest for the trees?
That's too funny. I always take good advice now that I've matured.

I completely agree with what you have said, Dora. But what I had problems with was her reason for not accepting the advice.
