Trust is a good thing for humans but it has its problems. The problem
is when you're trusting a non-worthy-of-trust person.
The other problem is that 'Trust' cannot be measured. Naturally,
Humans tend to trust other people unless other people
proved the otherwise.

We can probably say that trust impacts nearly every decision we make. Trust affects our relationships. Trust is a key 
component in our security and well being. But for all its importance, most everyone still approaches trust from “the 
gut”. We mostly let our bio-chemistry call the shots. And we can prove that WE ARE BAD AT DOING IT!"

A new article called Essential Trust Analysis is now available here:
