Trust vs Assumption

When you give a directive you expect them to understand and execute. You trust they will get it done. You trust they see the big picture… but then, nothing happens.

It feels like you can’t “trust” anyone to get the job done, so you continue to do it yourself. 

“I just need someone I can ‘trust’”, you say.

It’s worth inspecting your definition of trust. Perhaps what’s really happening is you’re assuming they want what you want. 

You’re assuming they can read your mind and they love what it says.
