The Consequences of "Going It Alone"

We've all heard the comment "I did the best I could." I've heard it a thousand times, said different ways. "I can't do it any better." "This is as good as it gets." That's not me." And any better. This is as good as it gets. That's not me. And I could never do that! These statements may be true, in that they reflect one's personal limitations when trying to do something by oneself. However, they are also completely false; if that person were to recruit counselors or partners, they could have achieved far more than they would have thought possible. I warn anyone who decides to do anything to seek the aid of a counselors or partners will radically limit one's achievement.
