Trust in Oneself

This is one of the most important things that anyone of can doing during our life here on Earth. We say the words I Trust you open heartily and I believe in you, but do we actually know what we are saying.

One example is a rock climber, he goes out with friends and they have all their equipment- ropes, harnesses and carbines. They have everything set up and they start out on the rocks. As he gets to the top he decides to abseil down the rock face. In order to do this another guy needs to hold the rope so that it doesn’t move to fast. The rock climber then trusts their friend with their life as it is indeed in their hands as they are holding the rope, so that it doesn’t slip and cause the climber to plummet to the ground. This is a real understanding of knowing another’s ability and identifying their traits.

If we look at the word TRUST with an in-depth approach we can see a true meaning of the word.

T - Talents, knowing your abilities and what you are capable of is very important, as with this we can see the good qualities and traits that you have and by understanding these traits in yourself you can see the fully in others.

R - Respect, when you know yourself properly and deeply you must find the area of respect within yourself, so that you can learn to respect others, for if you cannot treat yourself with respect how can you honestly say you respect others.

U - Understanding, once we have a mutual level of respect for each other we can also have mutual understanding also. This allows us to explore the personalities of the people we know so that we each the full benefit of helping and working together.

S - Self belief, believing in yourself to such a degree that you know that anything for you is possible and that you can always turn a cant into a can, a wont into I will. You will be able to see that nothing is impossible; because you have the inner knowing that you can and will succeed.

T - Training, allowing yourself to experience new things that make you explore more of your inner self. Seeing that the more you do, the more you experience and therefore there more you can emotional, socially and spiritually grow by.

When you trust in yourself you can eventually see that the whole world opens up to you and that you can achieve anything that you set your heart on. You can also the help others to truest in themselves too, as you have the knowing needed to understand what that person you’re helping needs to bring about the sense of believing themselves and rind their inner spirit that has that sense of trust.

May you all find what you are looking for in life and be guided from this side of life and the next.
