Answer 2

Little fish in a big pond.

Big fish only if I were trying to please my ego, not make real progress.

The reason is, even if you're a little fish, the bigger pond has more connections, resources, etc., so your chances of success IF YOU ARE TALENTED AND DEDICATED, are far greater.

Answer 8

I would rather be a small fish in the ocean.

I would rather to carry on exploring what's on offer and make the most of everything in the world. We have one life and without sounding clichéd and worn out, but it's true and one should not just settle for what's in view, life is precious, life is unmeasurable and life is beautiful, why not cherish and enjoy everything.

A little pond to me sounds like h**l, and the whole big fish seems very bully-esque to me.

The small fish in a big ocean, i like the idea of a bigger world to explore, more opportunities, i big fish in a small pond will eventually find itself running out of resources and may grow too large for its environment, a small fish in the ocean is not limited to such.
