Many dogs instinctively lash out at those who try to awaken them without reason, and these natural responses are often quite painful. Let sleeping dogs lie refers to the instinctive behavior of a dog whenever it is awakened suddenly from a nap. It is often better to agree to disagree and move forward rather than trigger hostilities over an ongoing difference of opinion. The idiom let sleeping dogs lie means not to stir up old conflicts or provoke an argument over unresolved issues. So, it's better to awaken those sleeping dogs than to lie. We all know that PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE. MAKE THE SLEEPING DOGS A CONTRIBUTOR, MOTIVATOR, AND ACTIVE.īecoz in this democratic country every individual is equally responsible for the good and bad condition so small loopholes like inactiveness of individuals can make the country to suffer. So, it's better to motivate the sleeping dogs or the inactive person to actively take part in this race instead of relying on luck. Simply we will get a wide variance between the expected output and the output we got. In every field we know that teamwork leads to a better output so have you ever think that what if we let the sleeping dogs lie or leave the inactive person in the state they want to? I agree with you all to some extent but in my view, we can't let sleeping dogs lie because this modern era is very competitive and to achieve something we all have to run in this race. So if you want to progress you have to interfere in most of the cases. So we have to interfere and make them work honestly or remove them, 'we cannot let the sleeping dog just lie'.Īlso in every organization, there is always supervision on a person whether he is topmost or lowermost authority to make the organization work efficiently and smoothly. Most of the Politicians of our country are lazy and corrupt, they don't do work properly themselves and also don't let others do things the right way and they often try to avoid investigation in their work by misusing their power. Everyone wants to get more and more output with less work input. So we have to interfere.Īs we know human have a great tendency to exempt themselves from work. But we cannot let the things as they are because by the time our needs are changing, demand for things are increasing and cost of living a decent life is increasing, we have work more and make others who are bearing responsibility also work more. To let sleeping dogs lie means 'To leave as they are'.
