Significado
To do something with no hesitation.
Contexto cultural
In Polish history, the 'szlachta' (nobility) valued 'flegma' (calmness) in the face of danger. This idiom reflects that stoic ideal. In the fast-paced Warsaw business world, this phrase is often used to describe 'rekiny biznesu' (business sharks) who make ruthless decisions. Action movies from the 90s (like 'Psy') popularized the image of the 'twardziel' (tough guy) who speaks and acts without blinking.
