Stephen M. R. Covey

"The Speed of Trust by Stephen M.R. Covey was a great book! It had a lot of good information on the different levels of trust and how to peacefully resolve conflict and restore trust. What I enjoyed about the book was that it gave practical information that could be used and how relationships that have been broken can be mended and repaired without calling the police or a parent to resolve the issue. What I learned from the book is that trust is something that should be held in high esteem and one that should be planted, grown, and worked on over the years to become a beautiful and strong plant. I learned that trust only happens when a person trusts themselves implicitly and treats themselves with respect and care and does not try to treat themselves badly. For if you do not treat yourself with trust, love and respect, how else would you treat someone with love and respect? I learned that I should treat myself with respect and trust and be honest with myself and not lie so that I can treat people with respect and trust and being honest with them always. That is what always matters. That is what this book taught me."… (mehr)
