81------Necessity is the mother of invention
When a person really needs something, he or she figures out some new way to get it. This creative initiative to change one's situation is considered much better than giving up and accepting things as they are.
82------First come, first served.
This saying is used when there is a limited supply of something such as tickets to an event or food at a picnic. The idea is that no matter what your status, if you want some of what is being given away or sold, you must present yourself in person and in good time.
83-----No pain no gain
one must put forth an effort in order to succeed. This saying comes from physical fitness instructors. They say that if you do not exercise hard enough to make your muscles hurt, the exercise is not doing you much good.
84-----Give him an inch and he'll take a mile
Be careful of presumptuous people who take more initiative than they should. If you do someone a small favor or delegate a little permission or a little power, he or she may take advantage of you.
85-----If it isn't broke, don't fix it
Do not bother trying to improve something if it is already working satisfactorily. That is a waste of time and you run the risk of breaking the thing while you are trying to improve it.
86-----There is no harm in trying
A person expects to be respected for making an effort even if it does not succeed.
87-----The cure is worse than the disease
While trying to solve one problem, we create an even bigger problem. We would have been better off if we had done nothing.
88-----Count to ten before you lose your temper
Do not instantly let your feelings control your actions. Slow down. Think before you react.
89-----All things come to him who waits
Sometimes patience is better than initiative.
90-----There is many a slip between the cup and the lip
This refers to a plan that has gone wrong. When one is drinking from a cup, one intends to get all the drink into the mouth, but this does not always happen. The plan is good but it can still fail. |
