That reminds me of my worst habit as a programmer: I want to solve every problem myself, instead of asking for help.
I certainly don't recommend quitting every time you have a problem you can't solve in half a hour, but there's a happy medium between that and wasting days (while you're getting paid, or at least wasting your project's time) working on something that the guy in the next room could sweep away in ten minutes.
