The Niels Bohr's quote says that making predictions is difficult, especially about the future.
The future is uncertain. Of that, we can be sure. Making predictions and speculations is not easy at all. We cannot be sure that something happens in that particular way, but we can reduce randomness as much as possible.
We should not make predictions randomly and meaninglessly. We should try to modify the present to control all possible future eventualities.
If we are protagonists in the present, the future is likely to become what we want.
