‘We must do the thing we must before the thing we may. We are unfit for any trust till we can and obey.’- George MacDonald

Without trust, you are not going anywhere. Trust is everything. When it comes to dealing with the world around us, trust is everything.

When it comes to dealing with the unknown, trust is everything.

And when it comes to you, if people don’t trust you, you are going to find it really difficult to succeed alone.No one succeeds alone. Trust makes success possible.

When it comes to other people, don’t worry about them. Instead of worrying about other people, focus on living your values.

People will trust you when you are living your values. Why is that? Because you are not just an ordinary talker; you are a doer. You do what you say you are going to do. When you say you are going to do something, small or big, you actually do it.

That is how you build trust. Words don’t build trust, actions do. You can talk all you like. If you do not support your talk with actions, no one is going to trust you.

Trust is life. To have it, you have got to work really hard for it. Do not say what you are not going to do. If you can’t do something, then don’t even talk about it.

Do not promise what you can’t give. We are human beings. If you do not have something, don’t tell people you have it.

If you can’t do what you say you are going to do, let them know before it is too late.

When you can’t do it, tell them why you can’t. Do not just tell them what they want to hear. If you want them to trust you, you must tell them what they need to hear from you, not from your secretary.

People don’t deal with your secretary. They deal with you. If you want people to trust you, you must first trust yourself.

If not, you ‘are unfit for any trust.’

How To Accept Yourself

Care for yourself first

‘When you care for yourself first, the world will also find you worthy of care.’- Haemin Sunim

Learn to express yourself

Learn to express what you are feeling without agonizing over it. It is a life skill every bit as important as learning how to read. Without it, dissatisfaction builds up, arguments break out, and relationships can blow up like volcanoes.’- Haemin Sunim

Look at your flaws with love

Do not despair over what is imperfect in yourself. Instead, look at your flaws with love.’

Choose a life that improves through failure and pain

‘Rather than choosing a life in which you do nothing for fear of making a mistake, choose a life that improves through failure and pain.’– Haemin Sunim

Do not judge people

Don’t judge people based on how they appear, as they may have difficulties that nobody can see.’- Haemin Sunim

Do not let criticism upset you

If you keep letting criticism upset you, then you will gradually wither, and in the end you will not be able to do anything.’- Haemin Sunim

Forget yourself

We often feel happiest when we forget ourselves. When we feel grateful for someone, we think about that person, not so much about ourselves.’- Haemin Sunim

Give more than you take

‘If you want to excel in a relationship, the way to do so is very simple: Give more than you receive. The more we receive, we can’t help but feel grateful and like the person.’– Haemin Sunim
