hi
Mustafa!
It depends upon what level of English you are. Means there is no limit if the level goes to advance.
We use idioms when we wish to express an important message in less no of words. Example `Those who stay in glass houses should not throw stones at others`. This statement has a great deeper meaning and it hits the listeners mind and passes all that speaker wants to pass on in shortest statement.
Adam has shared a very good thought..it connects our ambitions with related actions.
A Great Saying!
