“Frequent blows will break the stone” is a Welsh proverb. On a literal level, if you keep hitting a stone, it will eventually weaken and break. The proverb talks about diligence and the benefits of sticking with things.
Metaphorically, the proverb talks about sticking with a hard
task, and it will eventually get done. A task may seem overwhelming and have a
ton of small pieces that go into the larger goal. It is important to keep going
and focus on completing the small tasks and goals to finish the larger goal or
project.
No one is an expert when they start learning a new skill,
but as they continue to learn and practice the skill, they will be able to do
harder and more advanced aspects of the skill. This takes time and effort, but
if people stick with it, they can master it.
In life, people often face big challenges and feel
overwhelmed when they actually have to deal with them. They may have a large
goal or project or goal to tackle. These can seem daunting when we start to
deal with them, but as we break these tasks into smaller pieces, we find that we
can make headway and eventually accomplish the goal or complete the tasks.
It is also helpful to have a group of people to help you
accomplish your goal or project. Each person can take a smaller piece, and once
you all finish your assigned part of the project, it will be completed. The
more people there are to help work towards something, the easier it is to
accomplish. The pieces are smaller when more people are helping, so things seem
less overwhelming.
