From watching Dr. Cuero's interview, I was able to tell that he is a very humble man; although he has great success he does not brag or boast. To me, it seems that he is very proud of his accomplishments which is well deserved. I had not heard about Dr. Cuero before watching this interview, but now that I have learned about him, I have a great deal of respect for this man. He did not grow up in the best situation to say the least, having a father who did not know how to read and write and encountering prejudice throughout most of his life made it difficult for Dr. Cuero to achieve what he has. I really admire his outlook on life, especially when talking about peoples' expectations of others and that the only way to change their expectations, is to do what they didn't think you could do. By doing the unknown it surprises the person who is expecting you to do the known. I thought it was very unique that he had such a positive and encouraging outlook on life despite the fact that he always had predicaments against him.
Dr. Cuero's outlook on creativity is refreshing. I agree that creativity is about observing nature and playing with it. We experience through our senses and when using those senses, thats when creativity occurs. This concept is a reminder to me that I need to give back to nature and experience life a little more. I believe it is important that we use our senses in a variety of different ways on a daily basis and that will now be a goal of mine. Also, Dr. Cuero's outlook on intensity is empowering. Being committed to do something without fear is intensity and that is an aspiration; to live life with intensity. If you combine creativity and intensity into your daily life, you will have a successful life with many accomplishments, and that is exactly how Dr. Cuero lived his life.
