“It is a mistake to try to look too far ahead. The chain of destiny can only be grasped one link at a time.”

Winston Churchill

Simplified Meaning:

When we try to plan too far into the future, it can be overwhelming and make us anxious because we cannot know everything that will happen. Instead, it's better to focus on one step at a time. Think about climbing a mountain; if you only look at the top, it might seem impossible to reach. But if you concentrate on just taking the next step, the climb becomes manageable. By handling things as they come, we can better deal with challenges and make steady progress. This approach helps us stay focused and reduces stress, making it easier to achieve our long-term goals.
