"take it easy" ....
** There are other two idioms which I often use as well......
1. "Be in your own shoes" ....
(it literally means that you should not try to imitate another person at the cost of your own individuality and originality to achieve success)
2. "Count your chickens before they hatch" ......
(it's a very popular management 'mantra' (saying) that literally means, you must plan your every move so meticulously that you can actually make a perfect prediction on the possible outcome/s.)
N.B: In fact, the original English idiom was "Don't count your chickens before (until) they hatch" ..... however, modern Management experts have changed it slightly to refer to better Management policies and practices.

Put one's foot in her or his mouth

It basically means to say something foolish, embarrassing or tactless. This is the "foot-in-mouth disease"
