Answer

"Look before you leap." means you shouldn't act without first considering the possible consequences or dangers. "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" means that it is challenging to teach a person something new things. Most likely that person has been doing things a certain way for so long that they're too stubborn to learn how to do it differently.
