F l. Mercury 11 i CI-I LLENGE By I . Dwmwlmk NVith high school days behind us, we are met with a great challenge-that of going out into life and making a place for ourselves. By accepting this challenge with determination, and taking advantage of all the opportunities that present themselves, welll have a good start down the road to success. However, should we let things go-a-pace, assuming that theyill turn out all right, we'll have a head- start for failure. There are three basic places where this challenge appears. The first and most important is that of making something of ourselves in personal affairs. lf we cannot be individually successful, we will probably never be successful in our dealings with others, or as members of groups. In other words, we wou't be able to get along and get ahead with others unless we can progress individually. Again some of us will meet a challenge in the family unit. If we fail to understand the workings of such a unit, and don't try to iron out the difficulties, failure will be at our heels again. Thirdly, we are challenged in organizations, offices, and public functions. lf our interests are selfish and we donit look at the other fellow's point of view, welll find that we arenit needed in society. lt is essential for the well-being of our cities, states, nation, and even the world, that we find a way to operate success- fully in groups by means of cooperation, leadership, open-miudeduess, and per- serverance, and that we be Willing to accept the responsibility of positions and offices. This challenge cannot be met overnight. but will bc in our path until the death-bed. lf at any point along the way we decide that we have gone far enough, and stop to Q' rest in our former success, we will be neglecting the chal- Q' lenge and failure will be upon us despite our past record. ls MX H, fillment. our greatest challenge? 0 ' .
