Okay, today's expression, very good, I'm sitting on it, I'm sitting on it, I'm sitting on it, yeah that's it, four words.
first word I am I'm I'm sitting s I t t I n g on oh and it'd I t I'm sitting on it now almost always it refers to an idea idea but you can also imagine this expression where it means an egg.
EGG, like a chicken.
So I'm sitting on it, I'm sitting on the egg.
What is the egg? Is it really an egg?
No, the egg is an idea.
But if you think about a chicken, why does a chicken sit on an egg to keep the egg warm so that one day from the egg a little chick comes a new life comes and then there's a new life and that's the idea if you have an idea you want to do something you have a business idea a study plan you know maybe an English study plan but you haven't started yet that idea is just an egg you're sitting on it.
So hey, coach Shane, how is your new cycling plan coming, your bicycle you know racing plan coming?
Oh I'm sitting on it.
I haven't started yet.
My great idea. I'm still keeping it warm.
Check out the dialog.
I thought you wanted to start that new project.
Uh, I'm sitting on it.
Why? It's such a good idea.
Well, it's too early maybe in six months Lots of people have great ideas probably you I'm sure that you have had a couple of really excellent ideas But you were you know, maybe you were nervous about starting them Maybe you weren't ready you needed more money needed more time needed more thinking needed more people needed more Education, you know, we always need something So, when we have these great ideas but we're not ready to start, don't throw the ideas away.
Sit on them. Sit on them.
But remember, even a chicken will not sit on her eggs forever.
There comes a time when those eggs need to hatch.
There comes a time when you need to get off the eggs and let those ideas open and blossom and produce and Sometimes our ideas are going to fail.
But sometimes they're going to be successful and if we're lucky We're gonna change the world at least your world and maybe the world Absolutely.
So right now. Are you sitting on anything?
Do you have some plans exercise, you know, maybe a diet plan?
Maybe you want to kind of start a business you're thinking about maybe an online business Maybe you want to start a new hobby maybe you know photography singing sewing What is it?
Are you sitting on anything?
Is it English? Are you sitting on a plan to study English?
I? Understand you know we all sit on those plans, but don't sit forever Okay, I want to I want you guys to leave me a message.
