Trouble-Bubble

One of the greatest lessons I have learnt  in life is, To know your own strengths (very few and  far between, in my case) and weaknesses (too many to enumerate,  alas as regards the undersigned). One inevitable corollary of the above truth is, to try and avoid those persons who are consistently proven to be stronger and also more anti-self interests. In this context, a small poem penned on trouble, by a dear and near one in his infant years always seems to spring to mind in adverse circumstances:
         
           Don't trouble trouble,
            Till trouble troubles you,
             You only double trouble 
               And trouble others too.

In other words, I guess: Don't bite off more than you can chew. 

PS: Title inspired by the real 'Trouble-Bubble'
