Singing All The Way To The Bank: How Lopez Achieved Success
She Worked Nonstop: Lopez credits her mother for making her believe that she could do anything she wanted, provided she worked hard at it. With that confidence, Lopez attacked her obstacles head on and worked towards her goals with a vengeance. An admitted workaholic, Lopez’s ambition is well known throughout Hollywood. But, in the end, Lopez says it has all been worth it. “Even though it’s hard work, this is it. It doesn’t get any better than this.”
She Weathered the Storms: “You run into a lot of rejection in this business,” says Lopez, who experienced her fair share of failures. From botched auditions to unsuccessful marriages to movie flops at the box office, Lopez has encountered numerous setbacks all of which have occurred in the harsh glare of the public spotlight. But, Lopez kept on trooping. “I just never lost faith.”
She Went After Her Passion: “I started dancing when I was 5 years of age,” says Lopez. “At 17, I wanted to have a career as a dancer…I think when I saw Rita Moreno in West Side Story my fate was sealed. She’s a Latina and she sang and danced. I was mesmerized.” Having discovered her passion early on in life, Lopez dedicated herself wholeheartedly to pursuing her dreams. It was her passion for her work that made it easy for her to put all her time and effort into it. “You have to love what you do to put so many hours in and to put so much energy into things. And I think I just love what I do.”
She Followed Her Instincts: Lopez didn’t always make the popular decision nor did she always make the right decision. But, by following her gut instincts, Lopez could have confidence in her choices and take responsibility for their consequences. She first followed her instincts by ignoring her parents’ wishes for their daughter to be a lawyer and from that point on, there was no turning back. Lopez was going to follow her heart and impulse no matter what.
She Remembered Where She Came From: Both before she achieved success and after she became one of the most recognized faces in the world, Lopez stayed true to her Latin roots, promoting her community whenever she could. It was her unique background and upbringing that both helped her succeed and remain grounded after her success.
“You can't take life for granted,” says Lopez, who has followed her own advice and occupied her every second with pursuing new ideas and venturing into new businesses. “I'm not the type of person who feels you only have to do one thing or choose between stuff that you love doing…Whatever you want to do, do it!”

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
