when too many work together on a project the results is inferrior .Too many opinions can leave you confused.Always consult just one or two people for advice

I disagree. The more knowledge you gain, the better your decision will be because it is based on more information. Robert Mugabe consulted his Minister of 'Defense' and the Minister of Propanganda as to what to do about the people showing support for the Movement for Democratic Change in Zimbabwe, and look what happened there. If he had the opinion og the rest of the world, he would have acted differently if he was willing to listen. You cannot base a decision on one or two peoples opinion, because they could very well be incorrect. It is up to you to not get confused when faced with many opinions and have the patience to gain as much knowledge from others as possible and analysis their opinions - because some are worse remembering and others are nonsense. By your standards, because 2 people have responded to your post, thats all the opinoins you need, so you'd have to take my advice wouldn't you?

Some may find it more confusing than others and some need more time than others to consider all solutions. You need to find your balance with all the aspects, being time, facts and the ultimate goal. I see where you might be coming from: "Less is more" You get some advice, make a decision and get on with life, until the next decision needs to be made.
