We all like the idea of being the
hero of our own story. Of the overcomer of the obstacles set in our path. That should disaster strike or
misfortune befall you,
you'll be the one who steps up to the plate and gets the problems solved.

don't want to be the hero. Or at least shouldn't be. Sometimes it's best to just
swallow your pride and call in the professional problem solvers and let them do the problem-solving. Otherwise, you might end up like one of these geniuses.
