Getting help from others is a sign of weakness

[Halo Effect]

Have you read the book No More Mr Nice Guy? Not feeling comfortable asking for help is a classic sign of being a "Nice Guy".

One thing to consider is that extremely successful and admirable people often have in common that they have:
- a large network of people who they can ask for favors and advice.
- a group of likeminded individuals (be it friends or a mastermind group or whatever) in which they motivate each other, keep each other accountable, help each other and learn together.
- one or several mentors who are superior in skill or knowledge, who the person receives or has received a lot of help from.

There are probably many people you admire who got a lot of help in their lives to get to where they are now.
