For The Story:

A Complication or Two

The rejection letter from my Ivy League school of choice was the first major obstacle I encountered in my grand 10-year plan. It was not the last. I was 17, and at the time quite certain that nothing would derail me from my grandiose future. I planned to achieve everything my parents expected, and more. The first step was supposed to have been attending my parents’ alma mater, graduating with honors, and then moving on to law school without pausing to let my peers—or competitors—catch me. To say that’s not how it went is a gross understate

D). Too many plans in life prevent people from being happy and fulfilled.

Explanation:

The key idea which the author conveys through the given story is that 'having too many plans in life abstains people from being happy and fulfilled.' The author says that the excess pressure that we put on ourselves by making such grand plans not only creates unwanted obstacles and problems which we never expect but also ruins individual happiness. This idea is supported through the description of 'rejections and obstacles' that the speaker faced in his huge 10-year plan' which led him to suffer a 'gross understate.' This suggests that we make huge plans without considering the uncertainties and challenges that will come our way and it eventually mars one from their happiness. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
