Idiom: Hold your horses

Meaning:
Wait a moment. Slow down. Don’t rush. Be patient.

It’s used when someone is too excited, impatient, or moving too quickly.

It is an informal expression.
Why “horses”? 
In the past, people rode horses.
If the horses moved too fast, you had to hold them to stop them.
So “hold your horses” means control yourself and slow down.

Example Sentences
“Hold your horses! I’m not ready yet.”
“Hold your horses before you spend all your money.”
“Hold your horses — let’s think about this first.”


“Hold your horses! I’m still talking.”
“Hold your horses before you quit your job.”
“Hold your horses — we need more information.”

Do you make decisions quickly, or do you take your time?

Have you ever been too excited and someone told you to calm down?
