There is no guarantee that the door that is open now will remain open in the future.
There are those who superficially see this as "the natural word" and those who [have a clear idea of what is going on When some people see an open door, they think, "Oh, that's a nice door, I'll go in next time," while others think, "Oh, that's a nice door, I'll go in now because it might be closed soon.
concrete example
Someone said "I'm not sure yet this year, so I'll apply next year" for an event that used to be held annually that involved a selection of applicants.
However, the event itself did not take place next year
I've seen this happen many times.
It could be a change in budget, the spread of infectious diseases, or many other changes.
I'm thinking of attending an idol event next time someone breaks up with me.
