“Fate leads him who follows it, and drags him who resist.”

Simplified Meaning:

If you go along with what life has in store for you, things tend to go more smoothly. But if you fight against it, life can become tough and feel like a struggle. Imagine you're in a river's current: if you swim with the flow, you move along easily. If you try to swim against it, you'll get tired and might not get anywhere. This idea is like when people accept changes or challenges easier, they find it less painful and may even find success. On the other hand, resisting or being stubborn can make things harder and more stressful. So, it’s helpful to stay open to what life brings, rather than always fighting it.
