Simplified meaning
Life is really short, and there's so much to learn about our hobbies and jobs. Think about trying to become a great cook; it doesn't happen overnight. Even after practicing for years, there's always something new to learn about flavors, techniques, and recipes. Just like in cooking, getting good at anything takes a lot of time, but we don't have forever. This reminds us to make the most of our time and put in effort every day. For example, if you want to be really good at playing the guitar, you should practice regularly because each day counts. So, it's about valuing our time and being committed to learning and improving in whatever we choose to do.
