“Long-term planning is often undervalued by our indefinite short-term world.”
— Peter Thiel

Simplified Meaning:
People often do not appreciate how important it is to make plans for the future. In our fast-paced world, where we focus on what’s happening right now, thinking ahead can seem less important. Imagine a farmer who only thinks about the next day’s weather rather than the seasons ahead. If that farmer only prepares for a sunny day tomorrow but doesn’t think about planting crops for the future, they may run out of food when the season changes. In our own lives, if we ignore saving money or investing in our education, we might struggle later. To avoid these problems, it’s smart to take some time to think about what we want to achieve in the long run and make decisions that help us get there, step by step.
