tem que começar por baixo: como dizer isso em Inglês?

If you're in your twenties, just finishing college and expecting to embrace the world with your arms, maybe you should just try not to get carried away. In this generation, people usually tell us we don't have the patience for a step-wise progression of a career. We just want to start from the top, which is a great delusion for most of us.

So if you're like me, you may have been told a thousand times you have to begin at the bottom of the ladder. But what does that mean? Ladder is a piece of equipment used for climbing up and down. If you want to start climbing it, you'll probably have troubles trying to start from the top. You have to start from the first step to the last one, just like you would do with your career or any big plans you
have for yourself.

So if you want to be hired by some big company, for example, you may have to start from serving coffee to being the manager or something bigger like that. You can't skip steps unless you're the owner's son or daughter. I hope this helps. Talk to you next time!
