"You overcame the rain, but what about the dew?"

Meaning of Proverb & Background


This proverb gently reminds us that some people may believe they’ve achieved enough in life and no longer need to exert effort. However, achievements merely open doors to greater challenges.

For instance, technical advancements can improve global mobility but also require us to protect our planet. Similarly, leaders who think they’ve attained an unassailable status should remember that complacency can lead to internal weaknesses and, ultimately, bitter disappointments.
