Stablishing relationship

Our winning actions always start with complete trust and integrity. By description, trust is the "firm belief in the trustability, verity, capability, or strength of someone or commodity." As we work with people from different backgrounds, beliefs and gests, how can we cultivate a culture of trust? Award- winning author Liggy Webb shares these 5 micro tips on how to make trust

1. Believe in yourself

How much do you trust and believe in yourself?

The key to stablishing trust is to first have trust in ourselves, because if we don’t trust ourselves also why should we anticipate anyone differently to?

Being true to ourselves and our particular values is crucial to living a life of integrity and fulfilment. Cultivating a strong sense of tone- efficacity and tone- compassion will help us to feel more predicated and confident.

2. Let go of the past

Do you spend time ruminating on negative gests and remonstrating effects over in your mind?

This can be harmful and exhausting so occasionally we need to be suitable to SUMO ( Shut up and move on!)

Being Suitable to let go of negative gests from the history will enable us to appreciatively move forward and help us to be more trusting, lower anxious, and flexible.

There may well be occasions where we've been disappointed or let down and this is part of the rich shade of life. Some of those delicate gests will have made us stronger. Viewing each new experience and person with a freshman’s mindset and an open heart and mind is a far salutary way to live and make trust.

3. Avoid gossip

Do you ever find yourself caught up in tattling?

A good way for us to live with integrity is to imagine that anyone we're talking about is standing right behind us. This way we will always be regardful and aware of what we say about them.

People infrequently trust someone who's willing to dish and generally if someone is willing to dish about someone differently the chances are, they will do the same about us! There's absolutely no benefit whatsoever to tattling and it's a waste of precious emotional energy. All it does is energy negativity and unhappiness so steering clear of gossipmongers is essential when it comes to erecting trust.

4. Be ok with not having all the answers

Do you ever feel uncomfortable with saying"I do not know"?

When we don’t know the answer to problem or we do n’t have the result, it's far better to just be open and honest and just say so. We can’t be anticipated to have all the answers. Because no one does because after all we all people in progress.

This admission also provides us with the occasion to identify what we need to learn so we grow and come wiser.

5. Don’t play the blame game

Do you feel comfortable with taking particular responsibility when you make a mistake?

When people live and work together, honest miscalculations and bummers will inescapably do. That’s life! Still, when people start pointing the cutlet, and playing the blame game, this can veritably snappily undermine trust and produce fear, making people reticent to open up again.

Miscalculations are part of life and a healthy focus on seeing them as learning openings can help to support a more relaxed, cooperative and trusting terrain.
