Odysseus shows resourcefulness and cunning in his actions with the stolen sheep. Instead of resorting to violence or force, he uses his intelligence to outsmart his enemies and successfully retrieve the stolen animals.
Polyphemus is easily outwitted by Odysseus when the latter tricks him by giving a false name ("Nobody"). Additionally, Polyphemus falls for Odysseus' plan by believing that the sheep in his flock are actually his men escaping. Lastly, his boastfulness and lack of insight make him vulnerable to Odysseus' cunning tactics.
Odysseus overcomes Polyphemus by getting him intoxicated on wine, then blinding him while he is asleep. This allows Odysseus and his men to escape from the Cyclops's cave by hiding under the belly of his sheep. They also use their wit to outsmart Polyphemus.
One example is when Odysseus outsmarted Polyphemus by devising a plan to escape from his cave by blinding him and then hiding under the sheep to leave undetected. Another example is when Odysseus tricked Polyphemus by giving him a false name, leading the Cyclops to underestimate him and not see through his deception.
Odysseus refrains from stabbing the cyclops with his sword because he realizes that by blinding the cyclops instead, he ensures his escape since the monster is the only one who can move the boulder blocking the cave's entrance. Blinding the cyclops allows Odysseus and his men to hide under the sheep and trick the cyclops when he checks for intruders.
