“He that is good for making excuses is seldom good for anything else.”

Aesop

Simplified Meaning:

People who often make excuses usually don't accomplish much. Think about a student who always blames their bad grades on the teacher, saying the tests were too hard or that they didn't have time to study. Instead of trying harder or finding better study methods, they just keep making excuses. This attitude stops them from improving or reaching their goals. If someone is always looking for reasons why they can't do something, they rarely get things done. To do well in life, it’s better to take responsibility, face challenges, and find solutions rather than excuses.
