To all the other kids who do Lemonade Day or are planning to, don't ever give up. You might not make much the first year or second year. But each year you learn something new that will make you more successful the next time and that is what being an entrepreneur of your own business is all about.

I’ve learned you can’t just get whatever you want – you gotta work for it. When you set a goal, make a plan and work hard, success happens.
