“trust is also the most important ingredient in personal communication. If trust is not present, you can choose every word carefully and still fail to convey your meaning—everything you say is suspect and open to the most negative interpretation, and any attempts to explain or clarify yourself may make the situation even worse. When trust is present, it trumps everything else. Even when you can’t think of the right words or you stutter badly, it doesn’t matter. They’ll tell you it’s okay, because they know what you mean. They know what you are trying to say. Trust makes all the difference in the world.”
