With a good start, players can relax a bit more and aren't so anxious throughout the season.
You can have levels of trust, and you can question trust, but it shouldn't be something that's absent. I think, for any sort of relationship, there has to be levels of that.

You trust your work. You understand throughout the season everything isn't going to be perfect, stay confident, continue to take the shots you've been taking and whatever happens, happens.
Feelings are your guide. Trust your feelings and learn to express them, and do not blame anyone for how you feel. Be yourself, observe yourself. Look to understand any crisis you have been in or will be in.
