“No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings”
— William Blake
Simplified Meaning:
When someone achieves great things using their own skills and hard work, there's no limit to how far they can go. Think of it like a student who studies hard and uses their talents to get good grades. If they rely on cheating, they might get caught and fail. But if they use what they know and put in the effort, they can achieve incredible things and be proud of themselves. In history, think of inventors like Thomas Edison who worked tirelessly on their own ideas to contribute inventions that changed the world. They didn't depend on others to succeed; instead, they used their own abilities and determination. For everyday life, this means believing in your abilities and working hard; you will reach heights you never thought possible if you rely on your strengths. This approach also builds self-confidence and real satisfaction because you know you earned your achievements yourself.
