Conviction Is The Key
One person with a conviction would do more than a hundred who only had an interest. Commitment is the key to staying the course and completing the project. Conviction always precedes commitment.
When you are convinced as a salesperson that you are selling a marvelous product, your demeanor, body language, voice inflection, and facial expressions communicate to the prospect that you fervently believe you are offering something of value. Many times the prospect will buy, not because of her belief in the product, goods, or service, but because of the belief of the salesperson in the product being offered.
Our feelings are transferable. Courage can be and frequently is transferred to the other person. Convictions are the same. The teacher who fervently believes in the message he delivers will persuade the student by the very depth of that conviction. Many people have gone a lot farther than they thought they could because someone else thought they could. In short, their confidence, born of someone else’s conviction, had enabled them to make it. Conviction comes from knowledge and a feeling that what we are teaching, doing, or selling is absolutely right. When we transfer that conviction to those within our sphere of influence, they and society benefit.
Show me a person with deep convictions and I will show you a person who has made a commitment to deliver those convictions to others. Show me a great leader and I will show you a person of deep convictions who is able to attract followers because of those convictions. I will also show you a person who is happy in what she is doing and far more successful than people who do not have those convictions. Buy that idea, develop those convictions, and make that commitment.kAkA.hUnTeR
Let us start off on the right foot by making some wrong decisions.
