Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes opportunities come our way, but they don't stay forever. It’s important to take action when we have the time and ability to do so. For example, imagine a farmer who has to plant seeds in spring to get a harvest in the fall. If the farmer waits too long, he misses the planting season, and there will be no crops to harvest later. This idea applies to everyday life, too. If you want to learn a new skill, start a project, or help someone in need, it’s best to start as soon as you can. Waiting too long or hesitating might mean missing out on something great, so taking action when you have the chance leads to better opportunities and outcomes.
