TRUST PEOPLE FOR WHO THEY ARE | TRENT SHELTON
About this video
Shelton teaches that people continue to hurt us because we hold expectations of them that they are either incapable or unwilling to meet. He argues that we must reject negative thoughts about ourselves, as what we accept in our minds grows in our souls. Shelton urges viewers to trust people for who they consistently show themselves to be, rather than who we want them to be, and to stop giving untrustworthy people opportunities to hurt us by placing our trust in their hands.
Key takeaways
- Shelton advises challenging negative thoughts by asking how they serve your life and identifying proof of why they aren’t true
- According to Shelton, people hurt us repeatedly because we maintain expectations they’ve consistently shown they cannot or will not fulfill
- Shelton recommends trusting people for who they’ve consistently demonstrated themselves to be, not for who we hope they’ll become
