Grandmaster Amory sighed at the youth's brash behavior before continuing forward.
"Anyway. What was I saying? Yes!
You can always create a plan for yourself. And if it works out for you, well done! But be prepared to act spontaneously if it fails. After you have your Plan A and Plan B, Plan C should always revolve around having no plan at all. And you need to find a way for Plan C to work for you.
You may think that what I say doesn't apply to you because you still have plenty of time for yourself. But you need to understand that time is fleeting. There may be second chances in life. But they are not for everyone.
You'll blink one day and find out that you are too old to do anything you wanted to do for your whole life. Most of us, most of the time, get only one shot at doing something. So remember my words next time you feel like passing up an opportunity just because you feel like there's soon to be another."
