“Don't let your victories go to your head, or your failures go to your heart.”

Simplified Meaning:
It's important to stay balanced and not get carried away by success or discouraged by failure. Imagine a student who does really well on a test and starts thinking they are the smartest person ever. If they let that victory get to their head, they might stop studying hard and then fail the next test. On the flip side, if that same student fails a test and lets the failure make them feel terrible, they might lose confidence and stop trying altogether. The idea here is to stay humble when you succeed and be kind to yourself when things don't go well. Doing this helps you keep moving forward in a positive way, no matter what happens.
