"عملنا الرئيسي ليس لنرى ما يكمن في البعد الباهت، بل لنفعل ما هو واضح في متناول اليد."
— Thomas Carlyle

Simplified Meaning:
It's saying that instead of focusing on things far off in the future that we can't see clearly, we should concentrate on the tasks and responsibilities that are right in front of us. For example, imagine you have a big dream of becoming a doctor, but right now you need to study for a math test. If you spend all your time daydreaming about being a doctor, you might neglect your math test and fail it. But if you focus on studying for the math test, you take a real step toward your future goal. This advice encourages people to handle their current duties well instead of getting distracted by distant ambitions or worries. By taking care of present tasks effectively, they lay a solid foundation for achieving their bigger dreams later.
