This might be totally obvious to you, but it wasn't obvious to some junior managers that I manage. When you're an entry-level programmer and you get stuck on a tough programming problem for a while, you're supposed to go to your boss/lead for help. Now that you're an entry-level manager, don't feel like you have to solve this on your own. Go to your manager for help. They should have more experience dealing with this.
I think smart, experienced engineers who have been figuring everything out on their own for a while start a totally new role, then forget how to ask for help when needed.
