WHY TRUST IS IMPORTANT!

Francis Fukiyama wrote a book in 1995 entitled Trust. In this book, he reported on the results of studies of various nations over the centuries. Each of these nations was examined on the basis of the level of trust that existed within their societies. Fukiyama concluded that high-trustnations are prosperous and offer ever-greater opportunities for more and more people. Low-trust nations, on the other hand, have lower levels of prosperity and development. What is the reason for this? It turns out that the greater the levels of trust amongst the people, the government, and the business community in any particular nation,
the greater was the level of economic activity, growth, development, and prosperity that occurred. The lower the level of trust, the higher was the level of corruption and dishonesty. People were reluctant to invest or tie up their money in that country or economy. The fundamental glue that holds any relationship together is trust. It is impossible for us to proceed in any kind of a relationship unless we
trust the other person. All intimate relationships are based on trust. All good friendships are based on trust. All strong families are built on trust. In businesses and organizations, trust is the essential ingredient that holds the organization together. The success of the enterprise is virtually impossible without it.
The very best companies to work for have high-trust environments. In a great company, everyone, at every level, absolutely trusts and believes what other people say is true. In a good company, telling a lie
can be enough to cost you your job. In general, Americans place an inordinate emphasis and value on
the element of trust. You cannot even drive down the street without absolutely trusting that the person coming toward you will drive on his or her side of the road. Trust is the binding ingredient that holds our entire society together.
In business trust is an important tool for success and prosperity.

ACRES OF LAND.

There was a farmer in Africa who was happy and content. He was happy because he
was content. He was content because he was happy. One day a wise man came to him
and told him about the glory of diamonds and the power that goes along with them. The
wise man said, "If you had a diamond the size of your thumb, you could have your own
city. If you had a diamond the size of your fist, you could probably own your own
country." And then he went away. That night the farmer couldn't sleep. He was unhappy
and he was discontent. He was unhappy because he was discontent and discontent
because he was unhappy.
The next morning he made arrangements to sell off his farm, took care of his family and
went in search of diamonds. He looked all over Africa and couldn't find any. He looked all
through Europe and couldn't find any. When he got to Spain, he was emotionally,
physically and financially broke. He got so disheartened that he threw himself into the
Barcelona River and committed suicide.
Back home, the person who had bought his farm was watering the camels at a stream
that ran through the farm. Across the stream, the rays of the morning sun hit a stone and
made it sparkle like a rainbow. He thought it would look good on the mantle piece. He
picked up the stone and put it in the living room. That afternoon the wise man came and
saw the stone sparkling. He asked, "Is Hafiz back?" The new owner said, "No, why do
you ask?" The wise man said, "Because that is a diamond. I recognize one when I see
one." The man said, no, that's just a stone I picked up from the stream. Come, I'll show
you. There are many more." They went and picked some samples and sent them for
analysis. Sure enough, the stones were diamonds. They found that the farm was indeed
covered with acres and acres of diamonds.*
What is the moral of this story?

Opportunities.

What do we all know about taking advantage of opportunities that present themselves at our door steps?
Vince Lombardi once said " The difference between successful people and others is not the lack of knowledge, not lack of strengths, but rather lack of will".
