— Theodore Roosevelt

Simplified Meaning:
As you grow older, living a successful and fulfilling life requires preparation early on. Think of it like planting a tree: you need to plant and take care of it when it's still young for it to become strong and healthy when it’s older. If you wait too long, it might be too late to fix bad habits or create good ones. For example, if you want to be healthy in your old age, you need to start exercising and eating right while you're still young. Saving money is another good example: if you start saving when you're young, you'll have more financial security when you're older. By planning and taking care of yourself early, you set yourself up for a happier and more enjoyable life as you age.
