“So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong, and strike at what is weak.”

Sun Tzu

Simplified Meaning:

When fighting, it's smart to stay away from things or people that are powerful and instead go after those that are weaker and easier to defeat. Think about a lion hunting in the wild. The lion doesn't waste time trying to take down the biggest, strongest animal in the herd. Instead, it looks for the smaller, weaker animals that are easier to catch. In our daily lives, this idea can be useful too. For example, if you're starting a new business, it might be wise to target a market that isn't already dominated by big, established companies. By focusing on an area where there's less competition, you have a better chance of succeeding. This approach helps you use your strengths effectively without getting overwhelmed.
