...Faith...

                    .... when you believe in people, they do the impossible.

Faith in people is an essential quality when working with others, yet it's a scarce commodity today.

Let's take a look at four facts about faith:

1) most people don’t have faith in themselves.

2) most people don’t have someone who has faith in them.

3) most people can tell when someone has faith in them.

4) most people will do anything to live up to our faith in them.

When we have faith in others we give them an incredible gift. Give money and soon it's spent. Give resources and they may not be used to the best advantage. Give help and they'll be back where they started in a short period of time. But give them our faith and they become confident, energized, and self-reliant.

Become a believer in people and even the most tentative and inexperienced people can bloom right be fore our eyes. Remember: our goal is not to get people to think more highly of us, it's to get them to think more highly of themselves.

Difficulties seldom defeat people, lack of faith in themselves usually does it.

Believe in people before they succeed.

It's easy to have faith in people who have already proved themselves, it's much tougher to believe in people before they have proved themselves.....but THAT is the key to motivating people to reach their potential…we have to believe in them first, before their success, and sometime even before they believe in themselves.

Every person has the seeds of greatness within, even though they may be dormant. But when we believe in people, we water the seeds and give them a chance to grow. Every time we put our faith in them, we're giving life-sustaining water, warmth, fuel, and light. And if we continue to give encouragement through our belief in them, they will bloom in no time.

train smart, live, love, race, recover smarter.
