Patient: Finally I have passed my Geography test.
Doctor: This is great. I am so proud of you. I think you can do better than that and try to push the envelope.
Patient: What envelope do you want me to push?
Doctor: Push the envelope is an idiom used figuratively to mean going beyond the limit of what somebody has done. I trust that you have the ability to do more than just getting a pass in your Geography test. Keep it up!
