Trust - In Action Real Trust Will Impact the World....

TRUST...

I've written, erased, written, erased this post as I try to convey the magnitude of the power of trust.  Do I start with talking about what trust is not?  About mistrust?  No...I don't think so.  That's a negative.  We can all trust every day....I trust that the sun will rise.  I trust that if I do my work I will get paid.  No...that's not the trust I'm talking about.  For me trust comes down to the:

BHAG

The BHAG is the Big Hairy Audacious Goal.  Ultimately, real, deep down game changing trust comes down to the BHAG.  For me, I have a few BHAGs. 

1. I want to have the best marriage ever;
2. I want to raise children that love God, are leaders, and who will positively change the lives of others through example and actions, and I want to;
3. Spend my time trying to make a massive impact on the world

This requires trust.....

1. I need to believe that God has the perfect spouse for me.  I need to believe that my wife will accept me, good and bad, for who I am, while I'm still striving and working for something better;
2. I need to let my kids communicate with me and for me to love them the way my father and mother did, even when the kids are wrong.  I can still discipline them, but it's out of love.  That, my friend, it what real trust is.
3. In my quest to change the world, I have a vision that I can share with coaches and partners at work that help me achieve those goals through personal improvement, coaching, accountability, and vice versus.

Trust isn't a definition...

It's a way of life for those things that matter most. 

 Without trust we perish, but with trust, dreams are realized!
