The Relevancy of Trust

"Trust, not technology, is the issue of the decade." ~Tom Peters

In our microwave society, we are being brought back to issues that were relevant 20-30 years ago that some people thought went out of relevancy. They were wrong. Technology is not the be all end all that many people think and want it to be.  And while it may help us and improve efficiency it will always come back to trust.  Oh sure, you could put your trust in technology, but can technology trust you back?

Businesses, now more than in the last 30 years, is realizing that Trust is the key element. Think of all the challenges that we have faced over the last few years. What do they have in common? A lack or an abuse of Trust.

We do business with people we know, like and trust. I would say that out of those things, trust is the most important because you can not like someone, but if you trust them, still do business with them. You can not know the salesman but if you trust his company, they can get the business.

Start working on your trust level. Is it lacking? Part of being trustworthy is trusting others. How's your trusting level? I find most people do have a hard time trusting others. Here's the challenge...Trust people. Sure, some will let you down, but most people will honor that trust.

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Enlarge Your Life


“We lift ourselves by our thought, we climb upon our vision of ourselves. If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and of yourself. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, always, everywhere - your ideal of what you long to attain - the ideal of health, efficiency, success."~Orison Swett Marden

We lift ourselves by out thought! Think about that. We lift ourselves by our thought. What are you thinking? Is it positive or negative? I hope that it is positive. If it is negative, WHY are you thinking it? I mean really, why spend time thinking negatively? What does it get you? MORE negativity!

Do you want to enlarge your life? What would that look like for you? What would you be, have or do if you enlarged your life? To enlarge your life, you need to enlarge your thinking. Are you ready to do it? Doing it once is easy, even doing it for a day is easy...it's about doing each and every day, without question. You can do it, you just need to commit to doing it.

Hold the ideal of what you long to be. "Fake it till you make it." People say that's not authentic. It is authentic... for your future! Want to know your future? Look at what you are doing today. What you do today will determine who you become. Is that a good thing or do you need to work on it for a while? Are you doing the things that you need to do to become who you want to become?

Lift yourself by your thoughts. It will only cost you changing the way you think. Can you do that? I think so...

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!
