I think "help" for many people means "just get it done, and I don't care how". When I ask for help, it's usually from people who are more knowledgeable than me; and it's usually in the form of "how does this work?" rather than "can you do this for me?".
Maybe this is holding me back in some way that I don't realize?
I think it depends. Sometimes all you need is someone who can get you to an answer faster. But, at least when you're running a business, it's often more efficient to have someone else take care certain things for you instead of doing them yourself. It's an obvious point but it's easy to miss in practice when you're starting out if you're accustomed to handling everything yourself.
