Trust and confidence

Letters

PEOPLE in Papua New Guinea trust Toyota, especially vehicles and motor boats.
Therefore, in terms of vehicles, everyone is trying to own a Toyota Land Cruiser or 8th Element.
In terms of boat engines, someone is interested in a 75-horsepower Yamaha motor.
This is because it has been selling quality cars and boats for the past four or five decades.
This brings me to say that trust is not what you receive by begging others.
It is what you earn by being truthful.
If you are truthful in what you say and do, people will trust you.
They will want to rely on your knowledge, information and courage to get things done.
They will seek your help always when they are approached by unknown situations.
It is shameful for people nowadays to be begging others to trust them.
It takes years for people to gain trust and confidence in what they say and do.
Therefore, if you want people to trust you, you must be truthful always every time you do or say something.
Let your words and actions speak for themselves like they come out of you.
