Because @J.T. asked and @Altastrofae compounded!
*deep breath for an incoming speech*
Ya see, I see statistics as covering more general aspects of personality & body. As they do seem to cover more or less the same ground in spite of the varied franchises introduced. What D&D calls Strength can be Attack in Pokémon or Resilience/Resistance in Warcraft can be "Luck" in Fire Emblem and Etcetra.
I like to think this can be related to your everyday life as well! As follows:
Attack or Strength can be pretty self explanatory, even if Agility can bridge the gap between Attack & Defense. Your Attack can pretty much be your physical strength while your Defense and other related terms can be how much stamina or capacity to take what you have to do during the day. I have sure noticed different people have a much different tolerance for how much they can do in any given day.
While I prefer to think of things along the simple lines Pokémon draws for these things, it can be argued about what correlates to what statistics your familiar with from your games. Warcraft, for example, draws a rather unique and beautiful line between Intellect, Wisdom & Spirit.
For me, "Special Attack", intellect or other spellcasting traits can relate an awful lot to how well you prefer to think around problems or your own mental fortitude. While I, myself, do pride myself on cerebral flexibility I am aware of those who are quite distinctly more adroit at such... Mmeeeuh-... ttthhhh-... Thoughts Thinking.
Look, its late at night. The thought train just crashed.

Health! However! I see as distinctly separate from either defense or physical prowess! Taking myself as example, you could run a car into me and I probably wouldn't budge..... but just about every disease, fatigue or effect from any dang ol' thing runs me ragged! My capacity to take hits is high, but my capacity to withstand effects is low, if y'all get me!
