“In knowing how to overcome little things, a centimeter at a time, gradually when bigger things come, you’re prepared”

Simplified Meaning:

When you learn to deal with small problems bit by bit, you get better at handling bigger problems later on. It's like learning to ride a bike with training wheels first. At first, you might wobble a little, but as you practice, you get steadier. Imagine you start by solving a tiny issue, like fixing a loose button on a shirt. Over time, you get better at fixing things, so later when your bike chain comes off, you can fix that too because you've practiced with smaller challenges. This shows that practicing with little tasks builds your ability to tackle bigger problems smoothly. In life, starting small helps us grow our skills gradually, making us more confident and capable for bigger tasks that come our way.
