Episode 3025: Phil Cheney reflects on a painful experience of being underpaid after completing a renovation job and explains why one person’s dishonesty doesn’t have to destroy your faith in others. Through injury, disappointment, and self-reflection, he shares how trust is ultimately a personal choice rooted in self-awareness, boundaries, and resilience rather than the behavior of others. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://tinybuddha.com/blog/you-can-still-trust-even-if-youve-been-deceived/ Quotes to ponder: “You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don’t trust enough.” “Don’t assume you can’t trust anyone because one person was untrustworthy. You can’t control what everyone else does, and some people may deceive you, but you can control what you do, who you choose to trust, and what you learn from each experience.” “You see, my behavior in assessing how much to trust is within my control, while how the other person behaves is outside my control.” Episode references: Frank Crane: https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Frank_Crane Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Johann-Wolfgang-von-Goethe Learn more about your ad choices.
