to pause and reassess a situation
暂停并重新评估局势 (zanting bing chongxin pinggu jushi)
"Sometimes you need to take a step back to see the bigger picture."
"有时你需要退后一步，以便看到更大的画面。" (youshi ni xuyao tuihou yibu, yibian kandao gengda de huamian)
my patience has run out
to teach someone about a subject or skill
a small sign of possible success or improvement
to gain someone's confidence by being reliable
to be performing at one’s best level
to not pay attention to what is said
