Give help rather than advice.

Summary

This quote suggests that instead of simply offering advice or suggestions to someone in need, it is more helpful to take action and provide tangible assistance.

By offering actual help, we demonstrate empathy, understanding, and a willingness to contribute practically to someone's well-being or success. This quote encourages us to prioritize action over words and emphasizes the positive impact we can have through direct assistance.
