⎈Know how to approach for help

Being polite takes you a long way! When you ask for help, or someone asks you for help - even a small task, be polite. If you are assigned a task which you are not supposed to do, say & #39;No& #39; politely with a valid reason.

Being polite and knowing when to speak help, but I& #39;ve also mentioned to always assume they are busy. Until you have an answer, ask them politely.

One of the important factors of software development is to un-learn the redundant/wrong/inefficient learnings.

Removing the clutters of unused knowledge helps in the long run! Practising more useful ones helps with this!
