there used to be a weekly circus in my home town. there was a high wire act every week- a man pushed a wheel barrow across the high wire. i saw the show many times- to the point i had faith he would accomplish the feat next time.
if i trusted him i would get in the wheelbarrow next time.
trust is earned through actions over T.I.M.E= Things I(or they) Must Earn.
