CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Conventional wisdom(and Gibbler) would tell you the way to eat an elephant is one bite at a time.  However, the best route might just be to do it with the help of others.  In general we should leave the elephants alone but when we face issues or problems we need to lean on those around us for support.  Likewise look for those around you that may need some help and offer your support.
