mind your business
Don't be nosy
Mind your business is a directive to stop prying into matters that don't concern you.
It's a blunter version of "mind your own business," often used as a sharp rebuke when someone is being nosy: I asked where she was going and she told me to mind my business.
The phrase can also appear as self-directed advice about staying focused on one's own affairs.
