“固步自封、安于现状”在英语口语里能怎么说?

蹩脚口语:stop where I am
地道口语:rest on my laurels

影视来源:《绯闻女孩》

剧情引导:Chuck的父亲过世一周年的忌日,Blair体贴地请假在家为他准备好了早餐,但Chuck努力掩饰自己内心的伤痛,装作一副不在意的样子说要去工作了......

Blair: Morning. I brought your favorite. Oh, you're up.
Chuck: I haven't been sleeping well.
Blair: I know, hence the breakfast in bed...which will taste just as good in the living room.
Chuck: I'm not hungry.
Blair: Stop trying to pretend, Chuck. I know why you're upset.
Chuck: Today is a day like any other. In fact, I'm going to a meeting. I'm looking at a property on the lower east side. I can't be resting on my laurels. The empire's doing well. It's time to look ahead.
