Simplified Meaning:
When someone is too proud or too full of themselves, they often make mistakes that lead to their downfall. Imagine a sports team that has won many games and starts to think they are unbeatable. They become overconfident and don’t practice as hard or respect their opponents. Eventually, another team beats them because they weren’t prepared. This quote teaches us that being humble and recognizing our limitations is important. By staying grounded and not letting arrogance take over, we can avoid unnecessary failures. In everyday life, this means we should stay modest and grateful, always remembering that everyone can make mistakes and that we always have room to learn and improve.
