Simplified Meaning:
Starting something new or wrapping it up can often be messy and complicated. Think of starting a new job. On your first day, you might not know anyone, feel unsure about your tasks, and make some mistakes. Similarly, leaving a job can involve tying up loose ends, saying goodbye, and dealing with unfinished projects. Both situations feel chaotic because they involve change and adjustment. To make things smoother, it helps to be patient and give yourself time to get used to the new situation or to wrap things up properly. Embracing the messiness can make the process easier and less stressful.
