Doing new things with guidance and a safety net. Working solo you can push yourself to do new things but it's hard to tell how you might do them better. And some things I'll pay someone to do for me rather than try to do myself because I'm afraid of the consequences of failing (for instance, hardening a server). But doing something new under the instruction of someone who knows it well, you can ask WHY they do things a certain way, or what would happen if you did X differently, or even just "help, it's not working at all!" and learn a ton from the answers.
