Take it with a pinch of salt

5:59

quite

5:59

believe it I would say to my friend

6:00

maybe after our conversation yeah Dave

6:04

told me this but I'll take it with a

6:06

pinch of salt I don't quite a hundred

6:10

percent believe what he said but I'll go

6:12

with it I'll take it with a pinch of

6:14

salt so I'll take it I'll agree to what

6:16

they say but with a pinch of salt maybe

6:19

I won't completely agree or understand

6:22

what they've said to dig yourself a hole

6:26

imagine you have a shovel and you're

6:28

digging into the ground metaphorically

6:31

speaking so this is when we get

6:33

ourselves into a

6:34

an awkward undesirable situation a

6:37

situation we don't want to be this

6:39

happens to me all the time and then we

6:42

start digging and making it worse until

6:45

we're under the ground you could also do

6:48

this with physical things so for example

6:50

if you keep borrowing money from someone

6:52

and then it keeps building up you keep

6:55

getting into more debt you're burying

6:58

yourself you're digging a hole so each

7:01

time you take more money you're going

7:04

deeper you're digging yourself a hole

7:06

okay and we do it in conversation maybe

7:09

you say something wish maybe you

7:12

shouldn't have said or
