Angela Duckworth identifies seeking help as a key trait of success

Psychologist Angela Duckworth suggests that a key habit distinguishing successful individuals from others is the ability to seek and accept help. Rather than being solitary fighters, high achievers often attribute their progress to a network of supporters.

This perspective is illustrated through figures such as Steve Jobs, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Barack Obama, all of whom have acknowledged the necessity of assistance in reaching the top of their respective fields. Duckworth, author of ‘Grit’, emphasizes that the tendency to ask for help is a defining trait of those who actively move things forward.
