Simplified meaning
People need to care about both their personal goals and the rules of their country. Think about a small business owner who wants to make money. They must follow local laws and regulations, such as paying taxes and fair wages. If they ignore these rules, they might get into trouble, which could hurt their business. By respecting the laws, they help create a fair environment for everyone. This balance ensures they can achieve their goals while contributing positively to society.
