There is one aspect of communication. Asking questions. Sometimes I wonder if I am not asking enough. I will always try to figure out myself rather than ask. I am afraid if I ask about something and it is actually findable I am perceived as lazy, stupid or incapable of finding the answer myself so I have to waste others time and ruin their workflow.

I wonder if I am hurting myself with it and is it good or bad for my career and life.

I suppose there is a balance there somewhere, but I am not sure whether I am underasking or overasking etc
