Thankfully, my #1 literary boo, Ernest Hemingway, has a quote for just about everything: That sounds so simple on its face, but it's absolutely terrifying to think about. Earning trust is such a slippery and tricky and fickle endeavor... but so is keeping that trust in tact, once it's in place. A loss of trust is a terminal diagnosis for relationships of all stripes. For example, it doesn't matter how attractive or compatible or otherwise positively wonderful a romantic (or business) partner might be. If you can't trust them to be honest with you, to have your best interests at heart, and to share your values and your vision, that relationship will fall apart.  "Geez, Liz, this is all kind of heavy for a sunny Thursday... are you doing OK?" Don't worry, I'm fine! I'm not nursing any secret wounds over here — and my summer-lovin', happy mood from the holiday weekend is very much in tact. I just think we all needed a reminder today of how important trust is.  Being honest with yourself about the role of trust in your life is such a beautiful thing, though. Yes, it may hurt to admit when someone has abused your trust. But oh, when it's there, there's no other feeling like it. You feel safe and understood and truly seen — a downright magical confluence of feelings that is irreplaceable.  And when someone trusts you, you should think of it as the most precious gift... one to be protected at all costs.  And now, here's THE LATEST...  👉 "Why is trust the most important currency for any business, no matter their industry or size?"
