[MUSIC] Hi, and welcome back! A husband says to his wife very romantically, honey, from now on, you and I are one. And I'm the one. [SOUND] » [LAUGH] » In this video we assessed what's called your interpersonal trust levels. Hopefully, filling out the scale gave you some idea of where you stand with regard to how trusting you are of others. In this video I want to discuss how you can go about exercising something that I call smart trust, which is the sixth habit of the highly happy. Smart trust, as I mentioned in the first video this week, has to do with trusting others in a way that maximizes your benefits while minimizing the chance that you get hurt. If you're like most people, you've discovered that your trust of others, little less than is good for you, from the perspective of maximizing your happiness. So smart trust in your case would involve trusting others a bit more than you currently do. Of course, you don't wanna trust others so much that you're delusional or that you put yourself in harms way. So, smart trust in your case, if you're like the average person, would involve letting the pendulum of trust swing out a little bit more in the direction of being more proactively trusting of others but not be overly trusting. How can you achieve that? Let me talk about a couple of strategies that you can use to enhance your level of proactive trust in others. I will talk about one strategy for minimizing the amount of pain or hurt you feel in the instances in which your trust is violated. The first strategy for becoming more proactively trusting is to remember that people are actually more trustworthy than most of us give them credit. As we said with the water drop experiments that Professor Helliwell described, most of us believe that our fellow citizens are less likely to return the dropped wallets than they actually do. Just remembering this, that your instincts on how trustworthy others are is biased in the direction of being too cynical, can help you overcome this distrust and become more proactively trusting. Remember also that when you behave in a proactively trusting fashion, people are likely to repay you with trustworthy behavior because of the release of oxytocin, as we saw from the Swiss experiments. Reminding yourself of these two findings whenever you have an opportunity to trust someone will likely steer you in the direction of being more trusting than you might otherwise be. The second strategy, which is also a strategy aimed at increasing proactive trust, is to explicitly bring to mind the hidden benefits of proactive trust. As I mentioned in an earlier video in this week, we often don't recognize two very important hidden benefits of being proactively trusting. First, it helps us build our community of trustworthy people around us, and being embedded in such a community is obviously going to improve our happiness levels. Second by proactively trusting other, we help enhance mutual trust in society, and recognizing that we're making this contribution will enhance our happiness levels. Because, as we saw in week three, we all have a desire to contribute to the well being of others. The third strategy of smart trust involves lowering the chances of being cheated or being hurt. When you become more proactively trusting of others, you naturally increase the chances of being cheated. There's just no way around this. This is similar to how if you take greater risks in sports. Let's say that you want to go down a black diamond slope when skiing. You increase the chance of getting hurt. What this means is you need to have a strategy in place for minimizing the psychological damage from being cheated. Since the last thing you want is to become even more distrusting of others than you were to begin with. How can you lower the psychological damage from having your trust violated? I've discovered that entertaining the following three perspectives helps me. First one is to recognize that you are, at least when it comes to material domain, much better off than most other people in the world. In other words, you can in a relative sense afford to get cheated more than most others can, at least once in a while. So what if a taxi driver in Ghana takes you for a ride, both literally and metaphorically? Or so what if a beer vendor in Goa or Thailand or Mexico, gives you the slip. Being cheated of $20 here, $40 here is not gonna make a huge dent in your wallet as much as it might in somebody elses, say a farmer in central African Republic. Not only to look at it at this. If you and I, who are so much better off than most other people in the world, don't do our bit to enhance the trust levels in society, we can't really expect those who are much worse off than us to take up that, too. This recognition helps me deal with the pain of being cheated. The second thing that also helps me is to make a resolution to hold those who violate my trust accountable. That is, I make a resolution to not let those who cheat me get away scot free. I chase them down and give them a piece of my mind. Of course, you wouldn't want to hold them responsible for your happiness, right? As we discussed, you don't want to give up the keys to your own happiness. You also wouldn't want to chase people down to take revenge on them. But you would want to hold them responsible for endangering what we now know is a precious commodity, interpersonal trust. If you do choose to do this, you will discover to your surprise sometimes, that what you thought was a violation of your trust was actually just a communication mistake. This happened to me recently in Ghana. I hired a taxi driver to take me somewhere, and before getting into the taxi, I asked the concierge how much it would cost. The concierge told me 15 CD's. I thought he told me 15 CD's when he had actually told me 50 CD's. Taxi ride seemed really long for just 15 CD's, but you know, often taxis are much less expensive in places like Ghana and India than they are in other countries, so I didn't think too much of it. So eventually when we reached our destination, the driver charged me 40 CD's. I gave him the money, but only after giving him a good talking to in which I gave him a big lecture on what the scientific findings on trust show and on his untrustworthy actions were lowering a societal trust level. It was only later that evening when I was back at my hotel, and I had a chat with the concierge that I realized that the taxi driver had actually been quite honest. That made me feel quite bad, but it also made me feel good because it kinda restored my faith in humanity. By the way I just want to end the story by telling you I did manage to pass on a note of apology to the taxi driver to the hotel concierge. This experience reminded me of some recent findings, particularly by Paul Piff from the University of California at Berkley and his colleagues. Would show that those who are materially worse off are often more kind and compassionate than those who are better off. Here, let me play you a short clip that shows this. » And we were really interested in who's more likely to offer help to another person? Someone who's rich or someone who's poor? In one of the studies, we bring in rich and poor members of the community into the lab and give each of them the equivalent of $10, and we told the participants that they could keep these $10 for themselves or they could share a portion of it, if they wanted to, with a stranger. It was totally anonymous. They'll never meet that stranger and that stranger will never meet them. And we just monitor how much people give. Individuals who made 25, sometimes under $15,000 a year, gave 44% more of their money to this stranger, than did individuals making 150, $200,000 a year. We've had people play games, to see who's more or less likely to cheat. To increase their chances of winning a prize. In one of the games, we actually rigged a computer so that die rolls over a certain score were impossible. You couldn't get above 12 in this game, and yet the richer you were, that more likely you were to cheat in this game to earn credits toward a $50 cash prize. Sometimes by three or four times as much. » As you just saw from the video clip, it turns out that poorer people are more likely to not just be more generous, but also cheat less than the rich. Reminding myself of this finding makes me feel less bad when someone poor cheats me, because I feel that on average older people have a better heart. Here's another admittedly unscientific depiction of this idea that the poorer are kinder than you might expect them to be. This is a video made by Josh Paler Lin that has close to 39 million hits. Watch. » When you give homeless people money, do you ever wonder how they spent it? Today I'm gonna give a homeless guy $100 and I'm gonna follow him and see how he spent it. Hey! » Hey, how are you doing? » Good. How are you? » I'm all right. » I'm Josh. » I'm Thomas. » Nice to meet you. » Yeah, I just try to make enough to get me something to eat. » I just wanna like give back to people. » Yeah? » Not gonna be that much, but. Hey, anything's appreciated. Oh goodness. » This is a hundred bucks here. » Oh. No way. » Yeah, just keep it. It's your money now. » Oh. That's- » I just want, you know- » No, really. Are you sure? » Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead. It's yours. » I'm starting to tear up- » [LAUGH] It's okay. » That's like incredible. » It's okay. It's all right. » I've never, can I? » Yeah yeah, of course. Yeah of course. » This is my life. » Nice meeting you. I hope you can have a good use for all that money. » It will be, sir. » Okay great. See you. [MUSIC] Yeah just keep filming. Just make sure he didn't see you. [MUSIC] » He just came out. » What he got? [MUSIC] » He's going across the street. Let's go, go, go. Let's go, gonna follow him. [MUSIC] He's giving them food. » I wanna talk to him. [INAUDIBLE] » Hey! » What are you doing here? » Actually, come here. I need to talk to you. » [INAUDIBLE] » I was following you the entire time. » Oh yeah? » After I gave you the money, there's my cameraman is right there. You see the camera? » Oh yeah. Do you even know them? Like? » No. » I feel I owe you an apology because, you went to a liquor store, right? Earlier? » Oh you thought I was gonna get all smacked up drunk huh? » I thought you were gonna actually I thought you were gonna buy like alcohol or something. » Yeah. But there's things money can't buy, and I get a happiness out of what I'm doing. No, no, no. » Here. » I'm fine. » No, you just touched my heart. This is another hundred bucks. » No, this is- » I want you to keep it. » I'm stunned. » I'm stunned. [LAUGH] I'm stunned by- » I don't know what to say, usually I'm I'm pretty talkative. » How are you in up to, where you're at right now? » Basically I was living with my parents and my stepdad had cancer and they were getting hospice but it didn't cover it. The insurance only pays so much. I quit work because I had to be available. And so he passed away and then two weeks later my mother passed away from kidney failure. The building they're in is being sold to the condo, and I all of a sudden found myself homeless. And that's been four months now. There's a lot of people that are just victims of circumstance, and they didn't go homeless because they're lazy, you know what I mean? » Lazy, or drug addiction. » It could be a divorce and one thing leads to another and a man sells his boat and his home, everything and now all of a sudden he finds out he's got no money. You know, there's a lot of good people that are homeless. » Now all of this that you watched, that's not to say that if the other person cheats you it won't hurt you. Even if you realize that someone may be poorer than you are and the studies show that poorer people are kinder than the rich, it is still likely to hurt when you get cheated. So, in the instances in which you do get cheated, even if it's by a poorer person, it would be good to have a strategy to get over that hurt. It seems that the act of, or practice of forgiveness, has a lot of potential to mitigate that hurt. A lot of papers have shown that forgiving improves happiness levels, or at least lowers negative feelings. One study was conducted with women over 65 who had been hurt by a negative interpersonal experience. These women were assigned to either a forgiveness condition or to a control condition. Participants in both conditions met for eight weeks, one day a week. Those in the forgiveness condition were given training on how to forgive, while those in the controlled condition weren't given this training. The results show that the anxiety levels had dropped and the self-esteem levels had improved significantly for those in the forgiveness condition compared to those in the controlled condition. In another study, people who had experienced dramatic infidelity were given forgiveness training or not, and finding sure of that those who had received the forgiveness training carried far less emotional burden than those who didn't. Other findings similarly show that forgiveness restores trust that we have in others. The question of course is how can you forgive someone who has violated your trust? Personally, and a lot of research backs this up, it's useful to think along these lines, if someone has cheated me, I try and empathize with why they felt compelled to cheat. As we saw in week three all of us have a deep seeded desire to love and give. So if someone results to cheating it's because they're ignorant of their own desire to be a kind of jealous. Which must mean that they can't be that happy. It must also mean that their ignorant of the importance of trust for happiness. Of course, when thinking these thoughts about the person who's cheated me, I remind myself not to feel morally superior to them. I tell myself that had I been in their shoes, it's quite possible, maybe likely that I too might've behaved just like they did. This makes me feel grateful that I feel abundant enough to not result to cheating others. And this set of thoughts which have to do with trying to understand the circumstances of the person who might have cheated me. And also at the same time reminding myself of all the things that are going well in my life. Allow me the attitude of forgiveness towards those who might have cheated me. Of course, there are lot of other things involved in practicing forgiveness. But in the interest of time, I want delve deeper into it. Let me just say that forgiveness can be such a powerful practice for enhancing both happiness and the trust that you have in others that I have chosen it as the fifth exercise, fifth happiness exercise for this course, and you can find the instructions for this exercise in the readings section for this module. Note that this exercise is an optional one, it's not gonna count towards your grade. I have another exercise in mind as one that will count towards your grade. I will tell you about this exercise later this week. So, in summary, there are three strategies for smart trust. The first one, first two, actually, are for becoming more proactively trustworthy. One is to remember that people are more trustworthy, particularly when we trust them first. Then we give them credit. And two, to remember that by proactively trusting others, we are making an investment to enhance not just our own happiness levels, but the happiness levels of everybody around us. The third strategy is for mitigating the psychological hurt that comes from being cheated. One way to do this is by recognizing that if we were smart and successful and have so much going for us, can bring ourselves to up the average levels of trust in society. Then who else will? Another way to do it is by making a resolution, to hold those who violate our trust accountable for it. Not in a revengeful way of course, but in a way that conveys to them the importance of trust for everyone's happiness. The final way is to practice forgiveness of those who violate our trust. Hopefully by employing these strategies, you'll find it easier to exhibit, corrective trust, and therefore come to see for yourself what all these findings on trust have shown, that it increases your happiness levels. Here's to corrective trust and with that we're done with the 5th Deadly Happiness Sin. In the next video, I will be moving on to the 6th Deadly Happiness Sin, which is distrusting life. And I'll also cover the 6th Habit of the Highly Happy. And the 6th Happiness exercise. [MUSIC]
