"La volonté est pour l'esprit comme un aveugle fort qui porte sur ses épaules un homme boiteux qui peut voir"
— Arthur Schopenhauer
Simplified Meaning:
Imagine there are two people: one is strong but cannot see, and the other can see but cannot walk. When they work together, they perform better than they could alone. The strong person carries the other on his shoulders so they can both move and see where they are going. This shows how willpower and thinking work together in your mind. Willpower is the strong part that keeps you going, even when things are tough. Your thoughts and knowledge help guide you in the right direction. Just like the strong, blind man and the seeing, lame man, when your determination works with your smart thinking, you can achieve your goals. For example, if someone wants to study for an exam, their willpower helps them keep studying even when they are tired, while their mind understands the material and plans the study sessions. Combining both makes success more likely.
