There is safety in the multitude of counsel, no one would ever challenge that.
The thing bugging me is that I hate safety. I think playing it safe is just another word for fear. Afraid of making a change, afraid of rocking the boat and challenging the status quo.
No cutting edge work will come out of multitude of counsel.
No original idea can come out of multitude of counsel.
In fact, if you are pursuing ideas that every other person is pursuing, how on earth will you standout? The way I see it is that when in doubt, go with multitude of counsel, you will definitely find safety there. However, if want more than safety, if words like great, outstanding or awesome appeals to you then you have to go the other route. Play it safe by looking to the world for approval that what you are working on is legit or change the game by sticking to original ideas you have embedded within.
