About This Quote

It is always important to look down the road and see all of the changes needed to be made. The future will bring so many new tasks and obstacles that it will be difficult for anyone to focus on just one thing at a time.

When we look down the road and see how many problems we will face, we can also understand that we can work towards getting all of those problems solved.
