Is it worth the time to consider consequences of available choices before making a decision?
In the depths of a dark forest, a spider had a choice of weaving her web between two sturdy trees or on a single, fragile branch.
Opting for the easier, single branch, she quickly built her web.
A strong wind soon blew, breaking the branch and destroying her web.
Regretting her choice, she then took the time to rebuild her web between the sturdy trees, which withstood future storms.
Lesson:
Taking shortcuts can lead to negative consequences, whereas investing effort into stable, well-thought-out choices yields more lasting results.
