Simplified Meaning:
Influence works best when people don't know they're being influenced. Think about a good teacher who makes learning fun. The students don’t realize it, but she uses games and stories to teach them important lessons. They think they’re just having fun, but they’re learning a lot without even knowing it. This is similar to how someone can guide or inspire others. If you push too hard or make your intentions too obvious, people might resist. But if you lead gently and subtly, people are more likely to follow you and be inspired without feeling pressured. By keeping your influence hidden, you can be more effective in guiding others.
