"Il vaut mieux faire quelque chose que vous savez pouvoir faire mais que la plupart des gens pensent difficile que de faire quelque chose que vous pensez pouvoir faire mais que la plupart des gens jugent dur"
— Paul Graham
Simplified Meaning:
It's smarter to focus on tasks you're confident you can complete, even if others think those tasks are tough. For example, if you're great at fixing computers but most people find it challenging, you should work on fixing computers. This way, you use your strengths to accomplish something that others might struggle with, making you more efficient and successful. On the flip side, if you try to do something you believe you can handle but many others think is nearly impossible, you might end up failing or struggling more than you expected. By sticking to what you're good at and what others need help with, you can achieve better results and feel more satisfied.
