ENGLISH: HE PUTS HIS CHEST FORWARD.

This saying looks at how to put the chest of someone in forward-facing. There was the man who was acting while putting his chest forward because of a strength he had.

He finally became famous in his city because of his way of walking with his chest being forward. That is why people said that, “he puts his chest forward.”

This saying is related to a person who works alone without getting help of others up to the point of finishing his works. Such person wakes up in the morning and goes to do his works alone, until he finishes them well. He gets a lot of yield in his works because of his hard working activities, in his life.

This person is similar to the one who was walking with his chest being in front of him, because he also has to do his works alone until he finishes them. That is why people tell him that, “he puts his chest forward.”

This saying teaches people on how to be diligent in carrying out their duties well until they finish them, so that they can achieve many successes in their lives.
