"Keep one on one's toes" = khiến bạn trên (đầu) ngón chân -> nghĩa là luôn sẵn sàng cho những tình huống có thể xảy ra; đề cao cảnh giác, căng như dây đàn, không lơ là...
Ví dụ
Such prospects will keep you on your toes, all right. You can’t fall in lust (thèm khát) with the views up here. Oh, you probably will anyway. But best keep your wits about you — head on a swivel, knees loose (giãn), skis together, mind clear.
You’ll experience sensations (cảm giác) that keep you on your toes. Tiny distractions (xao nhãng), a buzzy feeling, nervousness, they’re all indications of heightened awareness. They will pass. Find the gift in them before they do.
