Simplified Meaning:
It's simpler to get the things you want, like money or possessions, than to let go of your need for them. Imagine you really want a new phone. It's pretty easy to save money, find a good deal, and buy the phone. But if you try to stop wanting the phone, that's much harder. You might keep thinking about how cool it would be to have it or feel left out without it. Letting go of desires means changing your feelings and thoughts, which can be tough. But if you manage to do it, you could feel more peace because you're not always chasing after things.
