There is such thing as being too close to a problem to understand it.

I am guilty of this sometimes. I get a bug on my program and end thinking a 100 things that could cause it. After some search, it usually turns out to be a 1 line typo.  If I had less knowledge of that could have being wrong, I could have found the bug on less time.
