Paradoxical Opposites
Don't read the other side.
-- P. T. Barnum
If I tell you, "Don't read the other side," of a hanging sign, what would you do? You would read the other side. Right? Of course you would. Why?
Opposites dictate reality. Example: If you sail eastward from the United States, you will eventually reach China. However, if you sail westward from the United States, you will also eventually reach China. The reason is that you sail circularly. Another example: If you succeed in the smaller tasks of a goal, you will eventually succeed in the larger goal. However, if you fail in the smaller tasks of a goal, you will also eventually succeed in the larger goal. The reason is that you learn from each failure. Final example: If parents tell their cookie-loving children to help themselves to the cookie jar, the children will probably help themselves to it. However, if the parents told the children to avoid the cookie jar, the children would probably and sneakily help themselves to it. The reason is that the forbidden provokes curiosity.
Likewise, there are two ways of solving any problem. One is the obvious way; the other is the opposite and obscure way. So if you are struggling to solve a problem in one way, sometimes solving it in the opposite way is easier. When off track, take the opposite tack.
Paradoxically, there are two ways to win: you win by winning; you eventually win by losing.
