Woah woah woah.

Moderation?

Are you mad?!

Fortunately, unlike the original suggestion, I think this article is actually a bit more fair, even if the headline is still click-baity.

Is resilience good? Of course!

Should you go for help every time you encounter a challenge? No, that'd be silly.

But never ever asking for help is still terrible advice.

Fortunately I don't think that's what the author is actually advocating, instead advising the obvious: don't use your co-workers as a crutch, but certainly use them as a support group when you're truly stymied.

But, of course, that's just common sense, and common sense doesn't a click-baity blog post make. ;)
