# Trust
Trust is confidence built through truth, competence, care, consistency, and kept promises.
## Meaning
In the [[Hormozi Meaning Guide]], trust lowers the friction between attention, [[Lead]], [[Sales]], and commitment.
In Joe's Mynd, trust is broader than conversion.
Trust belongs to [[Relationship]], [[Shared Meaning]], [[Agreement]], [[Sales]], [[Offer]], and [[Implementation]].
Trust should make action safer and clearer. It should not be exploited to bypass discernment.
## Source Of Meaning
This note is grounded in [[Hormozi Meaning Guide]], representative Hormozi videos on trust and sales, and Joe's existing relationship and shared-meaning ontology.
## Relationship Over Time
This note should mature through a relationship pass and a business pass.

## Tensions
Trust can be earned slowly and spent quickly. Business language can overfocus on using trust, while Joe's Mynd should also ask how trust is protected.
## Question
What promise is being trusted, and how is that promise being kept?
