Hey everyone! 👋 Today’s expression is “Strike while the iron is hot!” 👉 It means to take advantage of an opportunity while the timing is right. When the chance is there, don't hesitate! Act before the opportunity disappears. ⏳ Origin: This expression comes from blacksmithing. A blacksmith heats iron in a fire until it becomes soft enough to shape with a hammer. The iron must be struck while it's still hot because, once it cools, it becomes harder to work with. 🔥 Over time, this practical advice became a metaphor for acting at the right moment.
