Regardless of your role in life- a parent, teacher, business or religious leader, Mahatma Gandhi\u00a0has a message about character, competency and consistency, the key ingredients for building trust.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\u201cTo believe in something, and not to live it, is dishonest.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cTruth never damages a cause that is just.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThe moment there is suspicion about a person&#8217;s motives, everything he does becomes tainted.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cAction expresses priorities.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSilence becomes cowardice when occasion demands speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIt is wrong and immoral to seek to escape the consequences of one&#8217;s acts.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cManliness consists not in bluff, bravado or loneliness. It consists in daring to do the right thing and facing consequences whether it is in matters social, political or other. It consists in deeds not words.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cHonest differences are often a healthy sign of progress.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cI cannot conceive of a greater loss than the loss of one&#8217;s self-respect.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cRemember that all through history, there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they seem invincible. But in the end, they always fall. Always.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThe best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThe simplest acts of kindness are by far more powerful then a thousand heads bowing in prayer.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIn a gentle way, you can shake the world.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThere is no school equal to a decent home and no teacher equal to a virtuous parent.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cA &#8216;No&#8217; uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a &#8216;Yes&#8217; merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cSpeak only if it improves upon the silence.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIt is easier to build a boy than to mend a man.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cTruth is one, paths are many.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cFearlessness is the first requisite of spirituality.
