Learning from nature's adaptive strategy
The book's message emphasizes the importance of observing and learning from nature, which has existed for a much longer time period than humans. One of the key lessons is to avoid direct head-on competition for scarce resources and instead pursue a roundabout path toward an intermediate step, which ultimately leads to a position of advantage.

The paragraph emphasizes the idea that it's far better to be different than to compete with everybody else.
