1. Trust is a VERB not just a noun. It is ACTIONABLE. 2. SPEED of TRUST - When there's a trusting relationship there's faster movement, great results. Low trust slows down results. 3.You can behave yourself out of a problem you behaved yourself into. 4. Self trust is very important. If you don't trust yourself people know.

1. If you want to be on top you have to push yourself like hell. 2. You can achieve balance even if you are a little tilted. Anyone who does Pilates knows that. 3.
