Business
1. Know yourself first: If you want your
relationship to work in every area of life
each party must know who they are. It is a
fundamental step and you cannot skip it.
2. Do not judge: Neither you nor your partner.
Every person comes from a different family,
or even different countries. We each have
different habits and so you must be open to
understanding why the other person does/says/
thinks certain things and know that it’s okay. You
chose that person for a reason so don´t judge
him or her.
3. Create space: Each partner needs space
to just BE, do not interfere, do not absorb
that persons’ energy, let your partner express
everything he or she has inside (the good part
and the not so good part).
your relationship will be played. Remember that
in the absence of rules everyone creates their
own.
Creating a successful relationship is not about
the Facebook photo or how you show up at a
party, rather about what you do in private when
nobody sees you, when the shadows of each one
emerge, and you have to deal with it.
If you follow these guidelines you will not only
have an extraordinary relationship, but it will
extend to everything else, your health, your
business, your finances and all areas of your life.

4. Put yourself in their shoes: This is a good
exercise to accept other points of view. You do
not always have to agree with what your partner
thinks, but you can agree to put yourself in their
shoes to try and understand their perception.
5. Communication: For me, the most
important thing in my relationship is
communication. It means talking about
everything that happens to me and listening to
everything my husband is going through. Having
an open, direct and honest communication has
prevented us from having unnecessary fights.
It’s learning to express and listen to the hard,
the difficult, and even what you want to avoid.
When you learn to communicate in this way you
have a real relationship.
The most
important
thing in my
relationship is
communication.
6 . Take your partner’s advice into account:
Let’s be honest, if you have an open relationship
with your partner, where communication is
a pillar and there is space to exchange ideas,
there will come a time when your partner will
know you more than your mother. This means
that sometimes (even if it hurts your ego) your
partner will be right about something you don’t
want to admit. And they will speak up not to ruin
your day, but because they love you and want
the best for you, so take his/her advice.
7. Create your own Honour Code: Marriage
is an extreme sport and all sports have rules,
you must create the rules by which the game of Waleska Cerpa helps women and couples in the Hispanic Community to
