Q & A
THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE? WHAT KIND OF TITLE IS THAT FOR A BOOK?
Have you ever heard the phrase; “That person’s face looks like she has been baptized in lemon juice?” Lemon juice is sour and tart. Yet lemons have tremendous healing and nutritional power. In life, we often see the lemon as a parallel to life’s bitter experiences. Lemons though bitter to the taste can produce sweet results. In reality, life tends to be a bitter/sweet experience. THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE teaches you to make your lemons aid you...

WHAT IS THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE?
I will start out by telling you what it is not. THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE is not a book of theories or religious or motivational rhetoric. I personally believe that it's all B.S. (Belief Systems).

WHAT IS THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE BOOK?
The goal of the book is to help you be happy, be healthy and feel terrific!
WHO IS THE MAIN CHARACTER?
The foundational character of the book is the Biblical Hebrew dreamer named Joseph.He was a teenager that went through the pit and the prison, to the palace. He was only seventeen when he was thrown into a pit! WOW! There is hope for you. MAKE LEMONADE!
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE LEMONS AMONG ALL OF THE FRUITS?
Great question! First, because lemons are bitter!
Here are some natural facts about lemons that will prime you for embracing the concept of THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE! Lemons are high in vitamin C. Lemons prevent scurvy, a disease that causes bleeding gums, loose teeth and aching joints. To this day, the British Navy requires ships to carry enough lemons so that every sailor can have one ounce of juice a day. You have a sore throat? Reach for a lemon! You can add the juice of one lemon to an equal amount of hot water for an anti-bacterial gargle.
IS THE BOOK HARD TO READ?
THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE IS actually VERY easy read.I have called what publishers traditionally call chapters, episodes. Why? Just because I like to be different!!!No, the deeper reason is that the word episode basically means an experience. Life is lived in experiences or episodes not chapters. Let each episode of this book be an experience that will give you hope, change your life, and most of all teach you how to make Lemonade!
WHAT IS THE PRIMARY CONCEPT?
How to turn your liabilities into assets! The book focuses on what to do when life deals you a bad hand or hands you lemons, you MAKE LEMONADE! It is a book of reality, of proven principles that work to make bitter situations sweet. The principles are illustrated by real life people that MADE LEMONADE!

IS THIS A RELIGIOUS BOOK?
NO. THE LEMONADE PRINCIPLE is based out of an ideology I have created called pragmatic spirituality. For instance, when a commissioned sales person starts to use courage against the odds and sees success in advance before making a sale, he is using spiritual pragmatism and MAKING LEMONADE. He is using a spiritual principle called "FAITH" in a business context (believe me, I’ve been there, done that, and bought the tee shirt).
IF IT IS NOT A RELIGIOUS BOOK, WHY DO YOU USE A BIBLICAL FIGURE AS THE MAIN CHARACTER?
This is not a religious book but it is spiritual. We are all spiritual beings but we are not all necessarily religious.Joseph was not just a biblical figure but a he great man on the world's stage! Don’t wait to be great! Joseph became great even though he came from a dysfunctional family.
WHO WOULD BENEFIT FROM THIS BOOK?
The book is for the young and at young at heart needing a fresh vision for life.Anyone going through tough times would benefit. It shows you that tough times never last, but tough people do!Anyone who has been imprisoned can benefit. It shows how to reduce the rate of recidivism through developing the right mental and spiritual attitudes.
