“Go as far as you can see; when you get there, you'll be able to see farther”
— J.P. Morgan
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, when we start something new, we can only plan a little bit ahead because we don't know everything yet. It's like driving a car at night with headlights on—you can only see a short distance in front of you. But as you keep moving forward, the lights show more of the road ahead. For example, when Thomas Edison was working on the light bulb, he didn’t have every step figured out from the beginning. He kept trying new things and learning from his mistakes. Each failure brought him closer to success because he learned what didn't work, helping him see new possibilities. In our own lives, we might not know how to achieve a big goal all at once, so we start with small steps. As we make progress, new opportunities and solutions become clear. So, don’t worry if you can’t see the whole path right now; just keep moving and trust that the way forward will reveal itself.
