Start Small
Being an impatient person that I am (at times), I remember my manager trying to train me how to train my other junior. I was arguing against his concept saying that once my other manager literally threw me into the deep end, so I either swim, or drown! He disagree, but more on that later.
It is the concept of starting small, having small successes, then build on your successes so to take on bigger assignments, and to support the person should they grow too fast and fail, you encourage them to try again.
Well, according to the Chinese saying, it means don't try to run before you learn how to walk, and don't try to walk before you learn how to crawl.
The point of the above exercise is to build enough confidence in that person, so they can take on bigger things; and you help them to grow, so they can eventually grow to find their limit of who they are.
