People who make big promises can also make big lies. Trust first, but exercise smart trust. You can be the most productive and most effective, but politics show up as ego and jealousy for bosses who can’t perform. If your job or task is codependent, you can be sabotaged. Always seek interdependence and people who are authentic at the core, not blue in the face. Richie Norton
About This Quote

Trust first, but exercise smart trust.” This means that although trust is a great thing, some people who have made promises or have some type of authority can also be the ones to falsify their word. This is a terrible situation to be in, especially when you have no way of knowing if this person is going to keep their word. There are some things that you really should not trust anyone with because they will do their best to betray you.
