"لا تريد أن تكون الأول في التحرك، بل تريد أن تكون آخر من يبقى صامدًا"

Simplified Meaning:

It's often better to let others act or take risks first, while you wait and carefully observe what happens. By watching others, you can learn from their mistakes and make a smarter move later on. Imagine a game of musical chairs where you hesitate a bit before going for a chair. If you rush immediately, you might end up making bad decisions. But if you stay attentive and wait for the right moment, you have a better chance of securing a seat when everyone else is tired or distracted. In life or business, being patient and strategic often leads to better results than rushing in without thinking things through.
