#179 - Can I trust you?
Who can you trust and when? This is an age-old question. Many people say they don’t trust anyone until trust has been earned. Yet others say that they trust everyone until the other person proves they are not trustworthy. I generally, fall into the latter category almost without exception. That is…until recently. Today I share some ideas about trust.
If your goal is to find and develop a long-term relationship with someone, you have to be trustworthy. If you can’t be trusted, no amount of time and effort you invest in a relationship will ever make it good, much less extraordinary.
When you find someone that defends your character behind your back, make sure you keep them as a friend. These are the people you want to surround yourself with and they’re not that easy to find.
