Earning Trust …

And there it is … the secret is right there in the title. ’Trust’ needs to be earned. Someone once told me a simple truth - one I have never forgotten - if you want to engender ‘trust’ - simply make small promises and KEEP them.

It’s usually not about the big stuff. If we tell someone we will call them the next day - we DO it! This is how we build trust. This is how we develop a reputation for being reliable - for being the kind of person, that others can count on. if we can’t keep the small promises - what’s the likelihood that we can keep the big ones? 

So, think before we speak. if we say we’ll do something; we do it! That’s it.
