13123: Don't Be Too Proud To Ask For Help

Hey there, hero!

(For those who will listen to the audio podcast: at the very beginning of the episode, I'm holding an object in my hand, up close and in focus on my camera - just in case you're saying "How would I know what that is...I can't see it on an audio podcast!")

I recently needed help. I'm usually the one offering help to others, but this time...I needed help myself.

And I'll be honest - I had to fight the urge to say "Nah! I can do this! I don't need no stinkin' help!"

But I did. And I found I had to set aside my desire to be self-sufficient and not to burden others...and take a bit of my own medicine.

I got help - from one of my clients, Hopper Stone (a badass photographer, who came to the Palatial Lawrence Estate and helped me set up my new video camera.)

Ever find yourself in a moment of pridefulness or embarrassment, not willing to seek the help you need? Tell me all about it in the comments below.
