Summary
Obstacles: Use it, avoid it Bad guys: Kill it, avoid it So, when Mario is faced with an obstacle, he can try to break - which might yield goodies or just clear his path.
If the obstacle is in my way, break it, thus using it, embracing its usefulness to open a new path.
If you need to get higher up the map, use the obstacles to jump up.
In real life, unless you are a free runner, you are very unlikely to be presented with obstacles that require you to physically break them or climb over them! However, we all have obstacles.
What would Mario do? Again, he would weigh up the pros and cons of making use of the obstacle in some way or avoiding it.
If something has no benefit whatsoever - avoid it! Don't let worthless, draining obstacles get in the way of you doing greater things.
If you come up against an obstacle that you know is of benefit to tackle, but you are not sure you can, think multiplayer, ask for help from those around you that you know can assist - I am sure that Mario would call on Luigi if he could.
