Is it hard for you to trust other people? Or do you have an innate capacity for trust?

We are quick to assume the worst when it comes to the intentions of others.

Or we have a tendency to think that it can be foolish or naive to trust people.

And while if you might think that this is a good thing in certain situations or a kind of defensive mechanism, have you ever thought about how losing faith in other people might affect other areas of your life as well as your happiness?

It’s true, but if the idea still unnerves you, consider the below reasons for putting your faith in other people right now.

1. You’re also infusing your life with fresh vitality and novel experiences when you trust others. This suggests that you might be stepping outside of your comfort zone by taking new risks. You really may become a stronger person and begin to live life to the fullest by gaining new experiences. Therefore, rather than using this as justification to erect a barrier to trust, take what you’ve learned from the experience and move on if you ever feel like someone has taken advantage of you or broken your trust! Never let one encounter to shape who you are as a person or dictate how your life will go.

2. Whether in personal, or business, relationship, trust is unquestionably one of the most important components of every successful and happy partnership. Isn’t the relationship stronger the more you trust each other? Take a moment to consider who your most significant relationship is with. Isn’t that also the person you trust the most? Furthermore, it’s possible that your friends and work associates are also trustworthy individuals. Therefore, why not attempt to expand that circle of trust a little bit beyond what it now is?

3. It might be difficult to live a life motivated by trust, particularly if you’ve been duped in the past. However, did you know that by choosing to live in the present and not worry about the past or the future, you’re also making room in your life for receiving from the universe each time you choose to place your faith in someone else? Additionally, by doing this, you open the door to greater richness, love, and pleasure in both your own and other people’s lives! Furthermore, when you trust someone, you instil a subliminal desire in them to repay the favour. You’ll also frequently discover that this is all it takes for them to step up to the plate.

How about approaching someone you meet the next time without passing judgement and giving them the benefit of the doubt? Wouldn’t you agree that it’s a fantastic goal to pursue?
