About This Quote

The advice in this quote is a good reminder to not assume that one’s goals are predetermined. In other words, you should not assume that the path to those goals cannot be changed. In fact, you should always expect that a setback could be a sign that your path is incorrect or that a better way could be pursued. This is a good reminder because it demonstrates that the world is dynamic and changing, and so much can change in a moment without warning.
