Hal urban's statement on attitudes

             The statement I read on Hal Urban's ideas was very true. I believe our attitudes tell a lot about us too. Like when a person goes up to me and says something rudely, I will hesitate to respond. That person will not get the same respect as if we would've been nice. Another idea that I agree with in the statement is the one that says "our attitudes makes us rich or poor".

One day, a news reporter from a Hispanic channel watched him playing, and he saw in him such charisma that he made him a job proposition after the game. At this time he didn't know anything about the news, so they hired him as a weather man, a much better job than playing soccer. As time passed, he got more and more experience, and with his great attitude he got himself noticed. The news people gave him the anchor job. This was a real story by the way. I met the guy and he was really cool.
             One part that I didn't like about Hal Urban's ideas is when he said, "we are our attitudes, and our attitudes are us". I think this is too simplistic. Of course our attitudes are us, who else would it be? I think the author was just a little tired and just wanted to finish his little statement quickly. I mean you could say that we are labeled for our attitudes towards people, but not that we are our attitudes. Just because you see someone grouchy doesn't mean that they are not kind.
