Simplified Meaning:

When you guide someone so well that they really understand a topic, you don't need to give so many detailed directions later. Imagine teaching someone how to bake a cake. At first, you show them every step: measuring the flour, cracking the eggs, and mixing the ingredients. If you do a good job explaining and they pay attention, next time, they'll remember how to do it without asking you so many questions. By teaching thoroughly and making sure they grasp the basics, you save time in the future because they can work more independently. It's like helping a child learn to ride a bike. In the beginning, they need your constant help and encouragement. Once they get the hang of it, they can ride on their own without needing you to hold the bike for them. So, if you take the time to teach someone properly now, they will need less help from you later on. This principle can help in everyday life, whether you're training a new coworker, helping a friend learn a new skill, or even raising children. The better you teach, the more confident and capable the learner becomes.
