Simplified Meaning:

Some people make their mistakes bigger than they need to be, while wise people keep their mistakes small. Think about a student who fails a test. A "petty" person might blame others, make a big deal out of it, and let it affect their mood for a long time. They let the failure take over their life. On the other hand, a "superior" person recognizes their mistake and takes responsibility. They learn from it but don't let it ruin their day. Instead, they study harder for the next test. By keeping things in perspective, the superior person can move past their faults and improve.
