Today’s English

You know, you always go the extra mile, whenever you perform more than what others expect from/of you.
1.Whenever he plays tennis, he goes the extra mile and raises our eyebrows.
2.Bet on that horse! It will surely go the extra mile.
3.The whole college started exploiting him since he always went the extra mile.
If you want to encourage someone and ask them not to give up their spirits, you can use the expressions – “hang in there" / Stand your ground / stick to your guns.
1.I know, you are struggling a lot to complete your project. Hang in there! Soon all hurdles will pass away and the laurels will be yours.
2.Wait for the opportunity. Stick to your guns. You can beat him down in the next round.
3.I say, stand your ground first and build your energy. It’s not the right time to fight.
It’s a common situation that the subordinate staff with stuff in many departments often go unrecognized. They have to wait for the right opportunity to breathe life to their visions. “Wait in the wings" is an expression that will rightly help here.
1.I can’t do anything until my HOD retires. I am waiting in the wings.
2.Many young actors could not shine as long as the mass heroes are there. They have to wait in the wings.
Do you know when you really grow? Be all ears to Ralph Waldo Emerson:
“Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.”
Are you ready to go the extra mile now?
