Hello everybody, my name is Coach Shane and welcome to easy English expressions.

Hello, everybody, welcome back to Daily Easy English Expression.

How are you doing today?

Today, I've got an excellent expression for you.

It is stepping stone.

You can use me as a stepping stone.

I need a stepping stone.

What is a stepping stone?

Well, you have to imagine this. There is a stream or a river, but it's not a big

river. It's a small river. It's a shallow river, not deep. It's a stream. And you want to walk

across the stream.

Well, it's not dangerous.

You could do it, but your shoes would get wet.

So what you can do is if you can find some big stones, you can put them in the water,

and each step you could have another stone and you could walk across the stream without getting wet. Those stones are stepping stones.

Stepping stones assist you to be successful.

They help you achieve something.

You have a goal to get from this side of the stream to the other side,

but you want to get there dry.

And the stepping stones will assist you. They will help you

in achieving your goal. Does that make sense? Yeah. So what kind of goals do you have?
