WHAT'S YOUR PLAN? (AN ENGLISH FABLE)

One day, a chicken was walking outside the farm covered with a fence and met a fox.

Fragile as the chicken is, she has no choice when the fox called, wanting to converse with her.

The fox talked about what's in his mind. He also boasted about how clever he was. He said he has thousands of ways on how to survive in the wild with many venomous snakes.

Then he asked the chicken, "What's your plan to escape from a snake?"

The chicken replied, "I will only fly over that fence."

Just then, they heard a hiss of a snake. It wasn't alone, there are three of them.

The chicken did her plan in flying over the fence.

But then, the fox is confused and couldn't decide what to do.

The snakes cornered him and that was the end of his life.

Lesson:

Simple is better than a complicated one.

One plan that works is better than a hundred untried ones.
