In this brief motivational clip, the speaker urges listeners to be selective about whose advice they follow. Before taking advice, one should ask whether the person giving it has actually reached the destination or success the listener aspires to. The speaker argues that many people give poor guidance because they have never been in the relevant situation—they are merely observers on the sidelines. By ensuring that advisors have "won the game" you want to win, you increase the likelihood of receiving useful, experience‑based counsel.

Before you take advice from somebody, do this. Ask yourself, have they gone where I want to go? Because most people aren't where they want to be in life, not because they're not asking the right questions, because they're asking the wrong people. They're asking people who've never been in the game. They've only been sitting on the sidelines. And so the next time that you ask someone for advice, ask yourself, have they been where I want to go? Have they won the game that I want to win?
