Beware Of csmpromlsss.

One temptation in making difacult
decisions Is to compromise. You aren't
sure which way is the best, you seek
to combine the advantages OF both. and
many time merely combine all the
disadvantages. To be sure. there ara
times when 4 compromise is the wisest
course, but there are Just as many
times when 1t Is cowardice and weak
ness. How can one tell which times
are which, Well. that II simply an
