Oliver Optic, a well-known author of children's and young adult books wrote an interesting book called Haste and Waste; Or, the Young Pilot of Lake Champlain. The story is about Paul Duncan, a young man with a lot of energy and drive who wants to become a skilled pilot on Lake Champlain. Set against the lake and the towns around it, the story looks at Paul's goals, difficulties, and growth as he moves through the water and faces different problems. As the name suggests, Haste and Waste are about making decisions on the spot and the bad things that can happen when you don't think things through.

He learns important lessons about patience, duty, and the need to think things through before making decisions.
