7 Traits That Make You Trustworthy
- Be reliable . When you make a promise , value it. Honor it. Those you make to others, but especially those you make to yourself.

- Respect boundaries . Most people will signal when you’re crossing a line. Try to stop then. Try to spot the signals.
- Protect secrets . If someone confides in you, treat that vote of confidence with respect. Don’t blab.
