People can perceive one’s attitude through the words out of a pen, conversation out f a phone call and most importantly, from one’s intention out of their motions.
On the other hand, the author showed two examples of how one’s attitude can differ from influencing the surroundings according to varying situations. The first example is about attitude in the work place. The author point out that one’s will to generate positive attitude and also have the ability to retain the positive attitude while working with people, Is the most significant factor of Indicating one’s prosperity and the most that other appreciate to working with.

The second example Is also related to the attitude in the work place, but this is about how one’s determination to feel and adapt the surrounding of the working environment. When one perceives the working environment is not ideal or favorable, he tends to perform much worse than a worker who enjoys everything he contact with in the work place.

In his example, the blame and responsibility will always go to the worker, not for the reason of his performance, but his poor attitude to work as a team.
Besides the two examples, the author has generally described the importance of attitude in personal aspect. The author state that attitude is easier to be perceive with one’s body and facial utterance in a conversation, it is because people sometime talks with the tongue in the cheek, but their facial utterances are harder to show overtones and connotations.

If such unpleasant mood has spread to the people in the surrounding, one’s social life and career will go bad in no time. To should do self-evaluation as frequent as possible, like one should evaluate oneself as en reminds oneself to drink eight glasses of water per day.
To conclude, a person should not only show and keep positive attitude in the working environment, but also treat other with honesty, not to expose your negative attitude through the word is important, while avoid negative body and facial gestures are as eloquent as one should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself. Moreover, one should focus on resolving problems other than blaming people for their mistakes, because negative attitude will not union the group, but only tear it into pieces.
