The understanding is as follows:
"Only when you walk alone will you not overflow." It means that a person moves forward slowly and down-to-earth, and does not aim too high or too high. Stopped halfway. This is Master Mu Xin’s explanation of the meaning of being unique.
“No man is an island alone in the sea” is the poet John Donne’s interpretation of the relationship between people and society. We can never truly break away from society and "walk alone" completely to avoid drifting with the crowd. What we should do is to be independent while "going with the crowd".
