What are your convictions?

Whatever you want to achieve in life, you need strong convictions

• To become a leader and build a following

• To move up the ladder in your organisation

• To become an entrepreneur and sell products/services

Your convictions are like a filter
They draw people in or draw people out🔁

They're polarizing the world around you
Towards you or away from you🔁

If you stand for nothing, how can people stand with you?

You need conviction for yourself:

.With no convictions, you are without a North star
.You don't have a inner compass to help you make decision

You need convictions for others:

.With no convictions, people don't know where to locate you on their mental map

• Can they trust you?

• Are you a good person to follow?

• Are you the right partner for them?

• Can they give you that new promotion?

Help the world around you: Share your convictions

In my career, people with no convictions never got the jobs they wanted.

I only got promotions when I had strong convictions for my organization or my industry: the vision I sold to my managers provided the trust they needed to give me the job

Your convictions and your vision are what will make the difference in your life

Be intentional

1️⃣ Decide what you stand for
2️⃣ Repeat it, all the time

A conviction starts with: "I believe that ..." Or "I stand for..."

The more polarizing, the better (look at Trump…)

Again: people are either in or out.

Here are my convictions:

• I stand for people

• I believe that we all have a lot to bring to the world

• I believe that anyone has tremendous capacities inside and that my job is to help them see and realize those

• I believe that it is our job as leaders to create the right environment for those people to thrive

• I believe that my mission is to help other people find that spark within themselves that will ignite their inner genius

Here are more polarizing convictions:

• I believe salt is good for you

• I believe you need more animal proteins

• I believe the government doesn’t know what’s good for me or my kids

• I believe meat consumption is our best chance to reverse climate change

Can you feel it? You are either in, or out?

Your turn, tell me: what are your convictions?

For real, answer this message and tell me what do you stand for.
