Latinos have a history of risk taking: coming to the United States, often under uncertain conditions, to fulfill their dreams and create better lives for their families. Against the odds, Latinos living in the U.S. have gone beyond their original goals to achieve success and happiness. They've become multimillionaire business owners, leading political figures, Hollywood celebrities, or famous athletes.
How did they do it? Notable Latina journalist Cathy "Catalina" Areu asked 34 of today's most successful Latinos just that question, and each answer changed her life. Following their words of wisdom, Cathy was inspired to leave her low-paying writing jobs to create a successful media company.
You will be inspired to follow your dreams, and create new ones, when you see the motivating stories from stars which include:
>> Attorney General Alberto Gonzales >> Comedian/Actor Cheech Marin >> Actress Daisy Fuentes >> Comedian/Actor John Leguizamo >> Actress Rosie Perez >> Sesame Street's Sonia Manzano >> NFL Player Shaun Cody >> Actress America Ferrera
Latino Wisdom is an ideal read for everyone looking to recharge their mind, body, and soul - including you.
Customer Review: Latino Wisdom Celebrates the Human Spirit
Latino Wisdom offers more than wisdom from high profile celebrities and newsmakers. It celebrates the human spirit through stories about resilience and reflection, passion and conviction, purpose and creativity. As a writer & journalist, I appreciate Cathy Areu's journalistic style in capturing the essence of successful and driven Latinos. Latino Wisdom is a treasury of inspirational stories that I'll be able to read over and over again.
Customer Review: You Don't Need A Silver Spoon
You do not have to be Latino to be inspired by Latino Wisdom. In her introduction, Cathy Areu states the most important, fundamental theme of her book--Believe In Yourself. It's a theme that can apply to anyone, whether you're born with a silver spoon in your mouth or not. This theme crops up time and again in Areu's interviews with a variety of self-made successful people, everyone from actresses and singers to politicians, football players, and business men and women. Areu, herself, is a shining example of this principle. Her story, told in her inimitable, breezy style, is every bit as inspirational as those of the people she highlights. As she says, she wasn't born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but, applying the believe-in-yourself principles that are the theme of her book, today she's a successful author, magazine publisher--and much more.
Areu's writing is warm and conversational. In her interviews she conveys a sense of ease with her subjects so that their personalities-and hers-come across the page very naturally. Latino Wisdom isn't only inspirational; it's interesting and fun to read!
