"He who would climb the ladder must begin at the bottom" nghĩa là gì?

"He who would climb the ladder must begin at the bottom" = muốn leo thang thì phải bắt đầu từ đáy -> nghĩa là muốn thành công/có địa vị trong xã hội thì phải làm từ vị trí thấp trước và từ từ rồi mới lên cao dần.

Ví dụ

As the chapter’s title says, “He Who Would Climb a Ladder Must Begin at the Bottom”. Hinata has been knocked to the bottom more times than we can count, and each time it has only made him more determined (quyết tâm). He has the dedication and the drive. He has devoted (cống hiến) his life to this sport. He has endured taunts (mắng nhiếc, chế giễu) and jeers (chế nhạo, đùa cợt) and losses and he is finally here, standing on the court again, on par with the best in the country (and the world). This time, he’s not going to lose.

The callbacks in this chapter amplify the emotion in both the action and in the flashbacks. In chapter 370, Hinata has a framed plaque on his wall that reads, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” But if you go even further back, in chapter 211, when Takeda is chastising Hinata for crashing the first years’ training camp, he tells him, “He who would climb the ladder must begin at the bottom.” And now it’s the title of the chapter showcasing how much Hinata has achieved over the years. It’s enough to make anyone tear up.
