Thought Tweet #954 Trust is Influence's sweet spot.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

If a tennis racquet can have a sweet spot, so can Influence.

If you wanted to pave the path for Influence and you could only have one thing...

From Wikipedia...

"In a social context, trust has several connotations. Definitions of trust typically refer to a situation characterised by the following aspects: One party (trustor) is willing to rely on the actions of another party (trustee); the situation is directed to the future. In addition, the trustor (voluntarily or forcedly) abandons control over the actions performed by the trustee. As a consequence, the trustor is uncertain about the outcome of the other's actions; they can only develop and evaluate expectations. The uncertainty involves the risk of failure or harm to the trustor if the trustee will not behave as desired."

But...How to build trust?...Living with Integrity is a very good start.

"Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement."

Golda Meir 1898-1978
