Asking for Help
...8 times out of 10 it is a waste of time and doesn't help things at all.
The 9th time, there's some benefit.
And that 10th time...it makes things worse. Ten times worse.
So, yeah...as a general rule, I don't ask for help.
...from people.
There is, however, one Source whose help is always beneficial, even if I can't see it or understand it at the time.
God be praised that I can always go to Him for help.
