Play to your strengths. Like if you had a company (HP) that made printers. If they were tempted to get into the software market, someone might suggest that they "go with what they know" and continue to make hardware instead of business software. That way they are playing to their strenghs. It's also called focusing on your "core competencies".

It's a valuable cache or slogan, that you will find yourself using more and more as you get older. It can get used in countless long term situations as a way to tell someone use what you know or have experience or short term gut reactions as you tell someone go with what they feel.

From past experience, you know what works for you; this is what you go with. It's been tried and proved by you.

It means don't try to answer the question unless you know the answer... Or you should at least have something clever to say if you don't. ;)

Don't take chances. Be boring and safe. Don't experiment.
