Thanks to thoseof you who sent me tweets and messages during and after my apperance on CNN en español. On December 22 I will beback on the set to discuss more Latina momissues. In Spanglishbeauty I’ve listed thebeauty products I used that day, and I’m grateful to all the brands that sentme their best treatments and makeup to help me look and feel radiant. Followingprevious posts in which I state that perseverance breeds success as you understandit, I want to share a few tips that help me stay on track.    

• Evenwhen you don’t see results, keep on taking steps towards your goal.
• Ifyou think: “but nothing is happening”, relax! You don’t know what’s going on.You may have sent out a résumé months ago and they may be considering it today.
• Everythingworthwhile takes time. Even pregnancy is 9 months long. If it´s shorter, that´snot a good thing.
• Themore difficult life’s challenges, the better. If you overcome them, you will bemuch stronger than if it had all come easy.
• Whenyou reach your goals, don’t forget those who helped you along the way.  
• Begrateful daily for every little good thing in your life, no matter how small.
