Regardless of whether you are responsible for the lemons in your life, or whether they are beyond your control, lemonade is what you want.

With Monday, January 8, being my first podcast of the new year, I focus on starting all over again, personal goals for this year. I do not talk about my usual topics of losing 10lbs, going for extended walks, finishing my book for the umpteenth time, practicing the piano once again, drinking less, but perhaps better wine and generally doing a better job with whatever it is I am doing.

Rather, I speak about what I have learned these past years in making presentations to lawyers and paralegals, business and civic groups, even churches.

I talk about beating depression many years ago, and wanting it to stay beaten, transparency, faith, happiness, passion, honesty, and making the right choices.

I want to follow the wisdom of Robert Frost...

" Two roads diverged in a wood, and I -

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference."
