There are going to be moments in life when you must make very important decisions. You will find many people   36   to offer you advice if you ask for it (and even if you don’t), but always remember that the life you   37  is yours and nobody else’s. It’s important to decide for yourself what’s important to you and what you want before you   38  others. Because while there will be times   39  outside advice proves wise, there will be at least as many times when it proves completely   40 . The only way to really evaluate other folks’ advice is to first learn everything that you can about whatever challenge you are   41  . Once you’ve done that, in most cases you should be able to make a wise decision   42  anyway.
