"Si uno no sabe a qué puerto navega, ningún viento es favorable."
Simplified meaning
If you don't have a clear goal or direction in life, it doesn't matter what opportunities come your way because you won't know how to take advantage of them. Imagine you are on a boat, and you want to get somewhere, but you haven't decided where to go. Even if the wind is perfect for sailing, it won't help you because you don't have a destination. In real life, this is like not having a clear plan for your future. For example, if you want to be successful but haven't figured out what 'success' means to you, then no matter how much help or resources you get, you won't know how to use them effectively. By setting clear goals, you can recognize and use opportunities that help you reach your desired destination.
