Every phrase, proverb, or saying has a true meaning and a wrong interpretation.
Patience Is A Virtue | Should be no excuse for inaction |
You Must Know Your Limits | Shouldn’t result in not trying tougher things |
Don’t Overestimate Yourself | Shouldn’t result in you underestimating yourself |
Learn From Others’ Mistakes | Shouldn’t stop you from doing things others failed at |
Old Is Gold | Shouldn’t stop you from trying the new |
The difference is in the interpretation under a certain context and for a certain subject. Apply your own mind when someone throws any phrases at you and decide if it applies to you in your ‘context’.
Funny enough, each phrase is contradicted by another equally well-known phrase.
Patience Is A Virtue | Time And Tide Wait For None |
You Must Know Your Limits | You Know Your Limits When You Break The Barrier |
Don’t Overestimate Yourself | When You Are Determined, Sky Is Not High Enough |
Learn From Others’ Mistakes | Nothing Teaches You More Than Making Your Own Mistakes |
Old Is Gold | Embrace The Change |
One Life. Live Boundless.
