There is significant difference between help and advice Tomas.

Imagine you are struggling to carry a bundle of blankets through
a narrow door to a storage area, your hands are full, the blankets
are heavy, and one of them catches on the door.  You ask a friend
to help you.  He quickly goes to the door, unsticks the blanket
and tosses it up over the other blankets so that you can keep moving
forward.  That is help.
