"Where there is no counsel, purposes are frustrated, but with many counselors they are accomplished." Proverbs 15:22 (AMP)
Struggle with finding God's will for your life? Talk to someone, but not just any someone. Talk to someone who would be considered a wise authority on the subject of direction be it a: pastor, counselor, parent, trusted friend, etc.
By talking to these type people you avail yourself to a wider experience base and they may present to you a position that you didn't factor into your equation. Which is what Solomon is trying to say in this passage. Sometimes in life we don't have it all figured out but if we rely on just our opinions our plans have a greater propensity to fail than if we counseled with others.
