🐝1. A long shot

This phrase comes from sports, like basketball for example when a player is trying to shoot from a long distance. It means something unlikely to happen. With very little chance of success.

Example: Getting a senior position in the corporation one day is a long shot, but if you don’t try you’ll never find out if it’s possible.

🐝2. Back to the drawing board

This expression means to start something again from the beginning because it’s not working as you would have liked or expected.

Example: This project is not going as planned, let’s get back to the drawing board and fix what’s going wrong.

🐝3. To corner the market

To control enough quantity of a product or service that enables one to then change the market price willingly. It can also mean to be the only one making or providing a given product or service.

Example: Intel has pretty much cornered the market of microprocessors for servers. Their direct competition, AMD, is a distant second.
