When life gives you lemons, make lemonade," said Dale Carnegie back in the 1930s, when the world was mired in the Great Depression. Easier said than done. The Great Depression broke a lot of people. Unemployment hit 25%. Fortunes were lost. Homes and businesses were foreclosed on. Dreams were dashed. But the most resilient people survived. Many even thrived. Today, we're in the toughest timies since the Great Depression. And it's likely to last for a decade, perhaps longer. The tough times ahead will test many of us. These days, resilience isn't a nicety... it's a necessity.
