English Idiom: Keep your feet on the Ground

This expression means you should stay practical and not become too excited or overly confident about something.


When entrepreneurs start a new business, they need to keep their feet on the ground and remain practical.

It is common knowledge that most new businesses fail.

Therefore, a person starting a new company has to be careful to keep their feet on the ground.

They have to work hard, slowly grow their business and not expect to become wealthy overnight.

So good luck, everybody, in everything you do, but be sure to keep your feet on the ground.
