Is this what you can't have your cake and eat it too means?
for example I have a bottle of pop but if I drink it now I won't have it for later or tomorrow.

Another example might be: you can stay at home, never take a risk, and be very safe - - but you will miss much of the excitement of life. Or - you can skydive, climb mountains, race cars if you accept the risk that you might be hurt or even killed. As in all things, the middle path is the sensible course: moderation in all things.
