''you may feel pressured to shortchange the future'
Hi,
Please have a look at this:
Facing the necessity of conserving cash and surviving in the short run, you may feel pressured to shortchange the future. Resist this pressure. It will take imagination and guts to place strategic bets with no guaranteed payoffs when there's so little money available and so much uncertainty about the assumptions your plan is based on.
=> What does the bold part mean?
Many thanks,
Nessie.
