Famous Sayings - Don't Keep Good Advice To Yourself

The only thing one can do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.

- Oscar Wilde

A quick comment:

To not pass on good advice should be considered a great disservice. How many times have we failed to pass on good advice? Some advice can make a big difference in someone’s life. Other advice won’t be followed and that too may make a big difference if not followed. But better they had a choice by hearing an alternative offered by you, than none at all.

Giving advice that we know by experience and likelihood will, produce a predictable, good and desired result can go a long way and can make the world a better place, even if it only seems like such a small difference. So don’t forget to offer good advice.

What to do with this famous saying:

The next time you find yourself withholding good advice, don’t. Give it. I remember when I told someone who was selling a house they bought that they could sell it for much more and the money they’d make would be tax free. They were delighted, and they prospered because of it. This made me feel good.
