When life hands you a mountain of lemons Some people let the lemons take over their lives...
The lemons start to become over whelming and they
curl up on the floor and just look at all the lemons that surround them. They
do nothing.
Others look at the lemons and start cutting them in half and
squeezing the juice out and making lemon aid. They are being proactive, And
maybe a little reactive. But at least they are doing something.
Then there is the person who does all the research on lemons
and finds out what can be done with lemons. Now starts the planning … lemon
curd, lemon cello, lemon meringue pie, lemon cookies, maybe we should candy the
lemon peels. Let’s take this opportunity and use it as much as possible and
turn it into something we can work with. Let’s start a new trend. Let’s take
pictures of all the lemons and sell them. Let’s make a skin moisturizer out of
them. Let’s create hand soap, body wash. Maybe an organic household cleaner…The
possibilities are endless. And so they begin to work never looking at the
mountain of work just chipping away at the mound of lemons one lemon at a time.
When you look around you will find that you have used up all the lemons and you
enjoyed the process. And now you are an authority on lemons & you have a TV show all about lemons on the food
network… who knew …
Some people can be content with whatever is handed
to them in life. Some people just go with the flow and keep it moving forward.
Some are movers and shakers they decide to steer the boat of life and not let
it just drift along taking them where they don’t want to go. They don’t spiral
out of control they are survivors. And just maybe you start to realize the
mountain of lemons is the best thing that happened to you.
