2. Don't take on more than you can handle.
3. Don't bite off more than you can chew.

"Fetch" is very british, heard it a lot in Downton Abby, I'm wonder if there is an equivalent in American English for "Far-fetch"

"Far fetched" is a fairly common expression here in Canada although "fetch" is more of a British term.

I memorized this phrase in GRE books many years ago, after that, rarely saw it in TV, news papers, until recently heard it a lot in Downton Abby. but can't think of a similar American phrase
