Num's Observations: Trust


It fun to headline a blog in a third person gives it a very uber pretencious/I-am-know-it-all vibe which is actually not cool but really cool when you are trying to appear as a self-help coach :D yes- HA-HA.

Anyway recently somebody pointed out to be that I observe a lot and most of my writings are genuine due to that. I never thought about it, I just write in a very rambling approach tripping on my own words as they come to my mind :D the more I focus the more it seems forced upon (Goodbye writing my book, I just can't move forward after my first chapter).

Anyway so I decided to write a little blog series of my Observations. Today I will talk about

Trust. Rule No.1 : Don't Trust BLINDLY!
Please in this world, No! No matter how naive and how plain simple minded person you are don't trust people blindly. I don't second guess my self, its a habit I have grown with - I do things instantly. Mostly they tend to backfire right into my face but I have an inner peace which tells me I have no regrets - this please doesn't mean you jump of a bridge and not second guessing your steps! I see the best in people or try to and trust them usually, not thinking about it. Its pretty wrong - people have to earn your trust.

Rule No. 2: Its a two-way street baby!
Don't go on rambling all your secrets to people who aren't willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. Some people take time to open up, pace them out. Its two-way street... you have to meet somewhere in the middle.

Rule No.3: Trust your instincts!
Your instincts are never wrong, learn to trust them. I depend way too much on my instincts. It started from when my English Teacher in grade 3 start us with tenses and I was way confused - I used to depend on my 'it feels right'/'it sounds right' approach with it. Later I learned to apply that to my life. I do it if it feels right, if it doesn't I hold back. At the same times your instincts might be right about you but don't presume your instincts can predict future :D - they cannot. You decide to tell somebody you like them, you go with your gut feeling - they don't reciprocate it doesn't mean your instincts were wrong, it means your instincts helped you have no regrets. You decide to buy something pricy and in your head you are constantly calculating if its worth it or not. - Trust your instincts to know what YOU truly want - NOT what the universe wants from you - Whoa dats was deep :P

The tag of this post should be 'lessons' :P It was flooded by 'trust' or not to trust :P All of the suggestions were worthy but hard to implement. The last one was specially awesome.
Thumbs up to this post. Very informative once again.
