6 PROVERB A watched pot never boils
MEANING If something takes time to do, it doesn’t help to constantly check on it. You just have to give it time.
EXAMPLE “I know you think he’s going to be a great guitar player one day, but stop criticizing him so much. He just started taking lessons two weeks ago! A watched pot never boils.”
