Macbeth took the advice that he should not worry until Burnam Wood starts to move. Thus, when the messenger tells him that the woods are moving he says is to late to run away so he prepares everyone for battle. He is killed by Macduff for his decision of waiting.

Macbeth followed the advice that he shouldn't precipitate on acting on the battle against Burnam. For consequence of waiting the attack, the defeat takes place and Macbeth is killed for his wrong decision.
