OPPOSITION
By GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS
There is no force quite so effective as Opposition. When everything runs along smoothly and with no Opposition we lose the correctness of our vision, become careless and get off edge.
Win on your mettle.
Opposition keeps you constantly on the alert, arouses every ounce of fight in you and makes you think and plan you hardest and act beyond your normal powers.
Win on your mettle.
No one knows his own Possibilities of Efficiency and Achievement until the odds against him become desperate and he stands up and faces them and fights.
Win on your mettle.
You have within yourself certain abilities undreamed of by you that need but the stimulating force of Opposition to bring them out. Opposition, dodged, becomes a terrible monster; faced, it takes to its heels.
Win on your mettle.
