How Important is Trust to YOU?
I have never participated in the exercise where you let yourself fall back into the arms of friends or teammates, whom you trust to catch you. Frankly, I am trust-challenged at times and would WANT to rely on the strong arms and the minds of friends who were determined to catch me, but I would struggle with trust.
Ask the question above and "let go" as you answer!
The answers to this question will reveal quite a bit about you and how you have experienced life and relationships in the past. You may value being able to rely on your spouse's commitment to you and their honesty above feeling loved or being happy. Or you may have come to expect very little from people in your past and the need to know reliability and healthy dependence , may be lower on your list, than on your partner's.
We size up people every day, dozens of times, in the area of trust.
Can we believe the news? Will the car salesman give us a fair deal? Will my boss follow through on what they said they will do? Will the information I just told my neighbor be kept in confidence?
Trust is only as good as the strength and dedication of the object/person you lean on.
Your expectations and value of trust will define your relationship and your expectations of it and they way you function within it. Take the plunge, let yourself fall back and let go . Find out what your loved one thinks about "trust".
