About This Quote
Does trust have to be earned. Or is it simply a matter of faith? Is trust something that is earned or just a matter of faith? Many people wonder if they have to earn trust from others. In truth, trust is a matter of faith, not earned. Some people just don't trust others because it's been a long time since they've been trusted in the past by someone else.
It's also possible that some people don't believe they deserve to be trusted. People who are in a position of authority may not do enough to earn the respect and trust of their subordinates.
