“It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something”

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, the best way to solve a problem is to take action and experiment with different solutions. If your first attempt doesn't work, it's important to openly acknowledge that it failed and then try a different approach. For example, if you are trying to bake a cake and it doesn't turn out right the first time, you should admit that it didn't go as planned and then try a new recipe or technique next time. The key idea is to keep trying and not be afraid of failure. It's much better to take action and learn from mistakes than to do nothing at all. This approach helps you eventually find what works through persistence and adaptability.
