“Delay always breeds danger.”

Miguel de Cervantes

Simplified Meaning:

Putting things off can lead to problems. Imagine you have an important school project due at the end of the month. If you keep waiting to start until the very last minute, you might run out of time and not finish it well. This can get you a bad grade, which is the "danger" of delaying. In real life, if you don't go to the doctor when you first notice a strange pain, it might turn into something serious and harder to treat. The main idea is to act quickly and not wait too long, because waiting can make situations worse. So, it's good to handle important tasks right away to avoid any issues later.
