“Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted with important matters,” Albert Einstein. The textbook definition of ‘trust’ is a firm belief in reliability, truth, ability, or strength of someone or something. For some people being trustworthy is a challenge. These people may be deceitful. Being deceitful is the act of being guilty of or involving deceit; deceiving or misleading others. Not trusting someone is like a disease trying to break free through a thick layer of…
