"It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it."
It's a basic principle of hand to hand combat. You don't aim at the face....you aim past it so that the target is hit with uninterrupted maximum force.
