“The most damaging phrase in the language is: It's always been done that way.”

Grace Hopper

Simplified Meaning:

When people rely on doing things the same way just because that’s how it’s always been done, they might miss opportunities for improvement and growth. Imagine if no one ever questioned or changed how we travel. We’d still be using horses instead of cars or planes. Sticking to old methods can prevent new, better ways from being discovered. In your own life, thinking this way might stop you from trying new things, learning new skills, or solving problems more efficiently. By being open to change and new ideas, you can find better solutions and make progress in any area that matters to you.
