What happened to making lemonade?
It used to be, if you got lemons, you made lemonade.
We are abundant with lemons. And the media floods us daily with more, aren’t we lucky?
So we have the comfort of being informed where to find more lemons: the airports want you to arrive earlier and hold your bowels. Our government’s affordable health care is still in the ER (law makers get free health care, they must know). In California finding an extra dollar in their budget is easier then finding potable water.
You can (insert) your favorite lemon here…..
Why is it every year we make the spectacle of ushering in another year, with dreams of great things to come? I know the champagne industry and the confetti makers have reason to celebrate. People tend to overindulge and gravitate to parties when things get tougher.
I can tell with absolute certainty where you can go and make all the lemonade you want.
It’s right here, either sitting on the desk in front of you or resting on your lap while in bed. I’ve never seen more people become richer, faster and many of them while on “auto-pilot”, by just turning on the computer.
And if you ever wondered why I turn off CNN and my eyes start to glaze from this monitor? This is why.
Every New Years Eve, only these incredibly wealthy internet marketing people need to be standing in Times Square and let Dick Clark ask them how they all did it.
I know for certain, I would be wide awake when that clock struck midnight. I also bet you $47 right now for a limited time (just hit my PayPal button), the streets of New York would be the free of confetti and champagne corks.
Excuse me for now, time to go whiten my teeth, drink my Acai Berry and get back to taking my last 52 surveys I have left for today….

Don't get me started on our government. Either federal or California. Bunch of jerks. Okay, enough on that.
You have a terrific day Glenn. Big hug.

When life give you lemons, invest in a lemonade stand
"From lemon to lemonade: Squeeze every last drop of success out of your mistakes" – a nice Leadership book
Nice sarcasm about the ongoing Social media and Internet marketing gurus doing their "cheap" job in Twitter by selling your mentioned products *lol*

Happy Day Glenn…I love the goal oriented thought of Buying a Lemonade stand in the event of a gift of lemonades…Now that is a man who knows when and how to market.
I think that throughout 2010 the word Government should be banned. We should focus on positive words like love, sex, hugs, kisses, smiles ect:)

I love the way you think Dorothy, by all means please do yourselves a favor and stop by her incredible blog, Thanks XO
Hey Glenn –
Hope you enjoyed the acai berry. If you're looking for some cheaper places to purchase some – I probably have about 2861 e-mails in my in-box right now that I could forward to you. I'm more of a V-8 guy myself.
Great analysis of our current times – the one thing that's driven me nuts over these last few months is reading about those internet geniuses that make millions while their business runs on so called "auto-pilot" – I'm sure there's plenty of them – just wish the rest of us had access to the "secret"
My recent post BONEHEAD STIRS THE HATE
I emails 134 more then I do, think they like peeps with hardly any fat or skin left on them………
The word plenty is what is subjective. Every guy who is, started it all with hard work, getting it out there, not caring if the product works, they all rehash the same points. Just have to be first in line at the MLM store, or the owner. Also have to be able to sleep at night after ripping lots of people off each day. Don't know about you, but since losing my job I never worked harder to and networked more. But I am enjoying it. Think that's is the key, enjoying what you do.
Believe it or not my most successful business in my life was traveling up and down the Eastern Seaboard selling Frozen Drinks in the "80's listening to Jimmy Buffett and Bob Marley, what a way to go. No one heard of Smoothies back then and they lined up wherever we went. BY the way in North Carolina I was selling them on a beach there and everyone kept coming up to me and saying only $5 for a Smoothie and I say yup. Then they walked away laughing. I later found out a Smoothie in No Carolina was a slang term for a BLOW JOB, LOL.
