Who would you trust?

I agree with you mostly. Having adversity in your life usually forces the individual to rise to the challenge. There's an old saying, "Rags to riches to rags in 3 generations." That follows along this idea.

Still, I do believe that there are people who haven't necessarily faced adversity and who can be seen as experts in their field and who can help you. Doctors is an immediate example that pops into my mind. They don't have to experience the illness or disease but they can be very knowledgeable and treat you for the condition.

It is an interesting question...there is some truth in not being able to understand if you hadn't "been there".

A deep question.. I do believe everybody can be trusted it depends upon the situation and perception of the person whom he can trust. Not unless there's a proof to the contrary that he cannot be trusted.

Hi Justin:
I saw that on TV a while back and immediately thought, WOW that's not only courageous, but that is GREAT marketing.

Do you think you can gain bad mind habits by living that lifestyle?...b/c he's been fit and PURPOSELY become fat. So, his mind is "fit," if you will.

Therefore, when he got fat, it was easier for him to become fit b/c of his mindset... if that makes any sense?

On a similar but different note, what does make you stronger and teach you appreciation is when you live in a tougher life. In other words, you live on the streets for 2 weeks. Or, I saw a show on how primitive humans lived as cavemen and women for 2? weeks. No stove, no fridge, no shelter, etc. They had to hunt for food or they don't eat. They had to keep a fire going or they'd suffer. etc.

It DEFINITELY made you appreciate how EASY we have it now and how skilled cave men and women were to survive without modern day luxuries.

But, to answer your question, and this is a Marketing Tip: you buy from people you can relate to/ who has similarities like you (that's why the fit2fat2fit guy was a genius in terms of marketing).

Well as for me i will trust someone God has me to trust because human can never be trust and also God know every. From beginning to the end... It better to put your trust in God. He will never let you down, He will care for you more then yourself.

I trust all people initially, no matter what kind of life they've had, while simultaneously being aware of the potential for that trust to be broken due to what life can do to a person at any given time. Trust is dynamic; it changes with the environment. Therefore, I go into any relationship - whether personal or business - with the attitude of "I'll trust this person/idea/proposal", and keep on trusting until given a reason to distrust. If the trust is broken I chalk it up to life experience, and move on.
