Wally Amos, the man whom many consider to be the father of the gourmet cookie industry, has turned lemons into lemonade so often on his life that in his official portrait he holds a pitcher in one hand and a glass of lemonade ion the other. A perennial optimist, Amos refuses to acknowledge that obstacles are anything other than stepping-stones to success.

In a career that has spanned several decades, he has made it to the pinnacle of success several times, only to lose everything and be forced to start over.

But he’s never lost faith.

“You have the trust and faith to let go and not agonise,”

• he says.

“Don’t waste your time worrying. Worry is not preparation. Analyse the situation and focus on solutions. There is always an answer.”

Peace&Love
