However, could we be holding onto unhelpful ideas, of hyper-independence, and self-sufficiency, which could be a form of our own pride? The clip suggests that holding onto our struggles and not asking for help, may possibly be holding us back from success, because as we try to do everything ourselves, we lose out on time and better solutions to our problems, and even opportunities that could take us further.
