Day 458 - Trust

And how it flows

Trust flows through networks: if i introduce to you someone as a trusted person, my relationship to them will most likely influence yours. Or it will at the start.

At some point you will make your own judgement, and if you come to a different conclusion, the likelihood is that you will also trust me a little bit less (as i showed a lack of discernment in my introduction). In these ways, trust ebbs and flows between not just us, but our second degree connections as well.

Use your sixty seconds today to consider someone you were introduced to, and how you came to trust them.

Trust is one of the most powerful, and yet fickle, of our social currencies.
