In these reports, I plan to pass on some extraordinary truths that have been revealed to me through my pursuit of wisdom knowledge and understanding.  I pass these lessons on to my groups and blogs so that hopefully you may prosper in your Life and relationships

TRUST- Defined

 

I recently came across this article by someone whom I have followed for a long time; Mr. John C Maxwell. He describes better than anyone what it means to develop trust and how valuable it is in every relationship. It is an integral part of Leadership and an essential element of any other relationship.

Without trust, every relationship is doomed to fail and is only temporary. Trust is necessary in ALL good relationships. From marriages, to business relationships and friendships all require trust.

Gaining the trust of others!

Research has been done, and interviews made, and surveys have shown, that those who cultivate the character trait of trust do so by doing the following.

• Maintain integrity.
• Openly communicate vision and values.
• Show respect for employees as equal partners.
• Focus on shared goals rather than personal agendas.
• Do the right thing regardless of personal risk.
• Listen with an open mind.
• Demonstrate compassion.
• Maintain confidences. {the list from John Maxwell’s article}

He also adds that one of the most important ways to GAIN trust is to be willing to GIVE trust.

Everyone wants to be trusted. Don’t you? If you show trust in others then you too will be trusted.

“To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved.”
~George MacDonald

Professional Trust Cultivators

Take a look at our politicians; they try to invoke a sense of Trust within their constituency. They make promises they never keep and speak with forked tongue just to win the elections. However, they understand the way to gain trust very well and even falsely portray that wonderful character trait.

So it is my opinion that trust also takes time to cultivate. You will know the leopards as they show their spots. Actions speak a lot louder than words. People are who they really are in private, and unless you live with someone, you will never know exactly who they are.

So my policy has always been to accept everyone as who they present themselves to be and take the chance that they are a reflection of your first impression of them. They will, in Time, let you know who they truly are.

You can never win trust, if you do not give it.  Be sure you are the person of Trust and let everyone else expose who they really are.

May God Bless and Prosper each and every one of you!
