Often, we get caught in the trap of believing we need to do it all by ourselves. Big mistake! That's the ego taking control, and we know what the outcome looks like when that happens, don't we?
Unless you are a hermit (in which case it is unlikely that you would be reading this post), many of us work in organizations, live in communities, have families, and otherwise interact with a variety of individuals on a regular basis. When faced with vexing problems (or just day-to-day challenges) it is often wise to connect with someone in your network and ask him or her for help.
If you feel that the issue or problem is not suitable for anyone in your network, then feel free to reach out to an independent professional adviser, consultant, counselor, coach, guru, imam, minister, priest, rabbi, etc.
When in doubt, I find that recalling the 1965 Beatles song Help can be inspiring.
