“If You Have A Lemon, Make A Lemonade
That is what a great educator does. But the fool does the exact opposite. If he finds
that life has handed him a lemon, he gives up and says: ‘I’m beaten. It is fate. I haven’t
got a chance.’ Then he proceeds to rail against the world and indulge in an orgy of selfpity.
But when the wise man is handed a lemon, he says: ‘What lesson can I learn from
this misfortune? How can I improve my situation? How can I turn this lemon into a
lemonade?‘”
