Would you agree that you should typically make an earnest attempt on your own before asking for help?

What I agree with: show some interest in the people around you and what they do. Ask them for feedback when you feel you could use some. Every person can provide feedback, even through rubber ducking.

Find the courage to ask questions in meetings.
