脚踏实地

النطق: jiǎo tà shí dì المعنى الحرفي: Feet stepping on solid ground

الأصل والاستخدام

This idiom originated during the Song Dynasty in biographical accounts praising scholars who pursued knowledge through steady, practical effort rather than seeking shortcuts. The image of feet (脚) firmly stepping (踏) on solid (实) ground (地) contrasts with those who have their heads in the clouds. The phrase embodies the Confucian value of earnest effort and realistic approach to achievement. It remains particularly popular in educational and professional contexts, encouraging steady work over flashy but insubstantial approaches.
