Thankfully, I have experienced enough mishaps to realize most are our gifts in disguise, and the time is now to travel down a different road. Life and business are a series of ups and downs. We must answer the question, Are you ready to make lemonade? and prepare accordingly.

When life gets you down, two old-time expressions come to mind:
‘Make lemonade out of lemons.’ ~ Two recent incidents required I purchase the lemons!
‘The proof is in the pudding.’ ~ I purchased the lemons!
