The North Wind and the Sun have different personalities. The North Wind is aggressive and uses all his might at one time. The Sun is patient as he entices the traveler.

The North Wind was ineffective in his method because he was using force. He used all his strength to blow his wind but it made the traveler cold so he bundled up tighter.

The Sun's method was effective because he was appealing to the traveler. He made the traveler comfortable wearing his cloak then shined his hardest and the man got so hot he wanted to take it off.

The traveler serves the purpose of the judge. Unknowingly he is deciding who is the strongest by taking off his cloak.

The moral is persuasion is better than force. This pertains to the story in that the North Wind uses force and is unsuccessful in getting the man to take off his cloak. However, the Sun persuades the man by appealing to his senses. He gets hot enough that he has to take off his cloak to stay comfortable.
