Use simple English: rather by being or accepting to be prudently

[Learning_English]

The saying means that sometimes it is rather by being or accepting to be prudently obedient rather than striving to command that one can often achieve some control in the end.

It is disputable but widely shared.

Please anyone replace the above sentence with simple english so that I could understand.

Ho,

A suggestion: It is sometimes better to be humble rather than aggressive because you can often manage to have your way in the end. This is a view that may be questioned but is widely held.
