Last week we talked ​about how being helpful ​can make you feel good, build your network, and help your career. There was one situation that I didn't cover.

Sometimes you don’t even know you can ask for help.

When we feel that we are in an impossible situation, it doesn't occur to us to ask for help. ​Don’t panic.​ There is always a solution. It may not be the one you hope for or the one you like, but there is always a way to make your problem a little better.

Don't assume that you know all the answers. And secondly don't assume you can't ask questions. If you are in a real bind, discuss your situation with a trusted friend and brainstorm solutions.

Ask for help, brainstorm, and you will be surprised at the outcome.
