The same is true if you wish to be successful in business, your career, or life in general. Whether it is with your partner, your children, your staff, your manager or other key stakeholders, the ability to create and maintain TRUST is vital.

Remember the movie OMKARA, an adaptation of Shakespeare's OTHELLO

On surface, OMKARA is Shakespeare's OTHELLO, but the adaptation is very Indian. Human traits like trust, doubt or suspicion and jealousy can be identified the world over and that's what OMKARA highlights.

The movie starts with, Omkara's love and trust for Dolly, Dolly's unquestioning love and trust for Omi, Langda's loyalty and trust for Omi, Kesu's unswerving devotion and trust to Omi.

Omkara or Omi [Ajay Devgan] is a gifted chieftain who heads a gang of outlaws, which include the crafty Langda Tyagi [Saif Ali Khan] and the dynamic Kesu [Vivek Oberoi] amongst his chief cohorts.

The story takes a turn, when Omi appoints Kesu and not Langda as his chief lieutenant.

He breaks the trust (read belief) of Langda , which triggers the jealousy ( read negative emotion )

Using petty insinuations and lies, Langda keeps poisoning and eventually creates a element of doubt in Omi's mind till one day it snaps and Omi goes about tearing up his own safe and secure world.

The point is , the trust (belief) in each other is a powerful force and once that trust (belief) is broken – it triggers the negative emotions , which pollutes the thought level and destroys everything

Trust enables relationships to develop and flourish. When trust erodes, the relationship deteriorates. Doubts, which can creep into our thinking about the behaviour of the other person, can act like a poison and a cancer, quickly spreading to sabotage the relationship. Mistrust has a devastating impact on relationships and on the types and quality of conversations that will occur.

All of us, at one stage or other, have experienced a situation in which we have found ourself not trusting another person. This could have been someone we have just met and almost immediately have not felt comfortable with them. Expressions like "Wouldn't trust him/her as far as 1 could kick them" or "Wouldn't touch him/her with a forty foot barge pole" express this lack of trust

Unfortunately though, occasionally not trusting someone else also includes those we have known for a while. Doubts begin to creep into our thinking about their motivation and behaviour, and these can begin to have a major impact on the relationship, for our behaviour in relation to the other person will begin to be different

Trust is a positive belief , which triggers positive emotions and positive thoughts about a person or events and produce a positive outcome

Lack of trust or doubt is a negative belief – which triggers negative emotions and thoughts and results into negative outcome

Confidence, Integrity, credibility, values and ethics are also part of belief system
