What a powerful post.

Trust has never something an individual needed to earn from me, only something they could lose; and making excuses, playing victim, or worse – lying, has always been the fastest way to lose that trust.

Maybe because Responsibility is my number one StrengthsFinder theme, but once someone has lost their creditability or trust with me, it’s seldom repaired.  For a long time, I find I carry a hint of doubt that was never there before.
