Explanation

This proverb means that rushing through tasks often results in mistakes that require more time to fix than doing the job carefully in the first place. The traditional form uses 'makes' to complete the saying: 'Haste makes waste.' While 'leads to' conveys similar meaning, it is not the traditional wording of this proverb.
