I just left another Dream Builder meeting 17 stories up in downtown Orlando. I’m continually thankful that I enjoy the camaraderie and adventure with these amazing, weird individuals (www.tinyurl.com/birdinthebox). This morning, amidst stories of helicopter rescues in Haiti (led by the REAL Jack Bauer – no kidding), adoptions in China, and new South African theme parks – we discussed how Dream Builders build trust with each other. Here are the actions we identified:
- Be consistent – keep showing up
- Be truthful even when it hurts
- Say what you do – do what you say
- Be open about shortcomings
- Demonstrate that you care
- Be a cheerleader
- Love your wife and children
- Be more than fair
- Practice forgiveness
Did I mention how thankful I am to hang around these weirdos?
