Simplified meaning
If a person refuses to listen to advice, no one can assist them. Imagine someone trying to fix a broken car but ignoring the mechanic's guidance. They might keep making mistakes and the car stays broken. The same applies to life: if you don't pay attention to those who know more or have more experience, you can't improve your situation. Seeking and accepting advice can help solve problems and make better choices. So, to get help and move forward, be open to listening and learning from others.
