For a long time during the story, Odysseus does not think he needs the gods to help him. In fact, he is annoyed by Poseidon who is annoyed by Odysseus when Odysseus blinds the Cyclops. The god of the winds tries to help him, but his men ruin that. Odysseus does not get to return home until he has some humility.
