A couple of posts earlier on placed an emphasis on "attitude" -

'fly the attitude, not the instruments'
Good advice, but one caveat: beware of runways with a pronounced upslope when on final approach - the "correct attitude" (judged wrt. the runway) could cause you to fly too slowly. The opposite occurs with a downslope - flying the "correct attitude" could cause an overly-steep approach, resulting in higher than ideal threshold speed.
