“I once was told in a job interview, ‘You can’t have this job if you can’t ask for help when you need it. Naturally, I found out that the previous person with that job had screwed up big-time because he was in over his head but couldn’t admit it and didn’t ask for help.”

10. Mastering your thoughts
To do what you want to do and accomplish what you want to accomplish, you need to consciously direct your thinking.
