Conviction
con·vic·tion
What does Conviction mean?
Belief that has made its way into your actions. Conviction is what you stand on when it would be easier to sit down.
Another way of seeing Conviction
Conviction isn't measured by how loudly you argue, but by what you do when no one is watching and it costs you something. Opinions are cheap; everyone has hundreds. A conviction is an opinion you've paid for — in time, comfort or popularity. Count what you've paid for, and you'll know what you truly believe.
Conviction in relationships
People feel safe around someone whose values don't shift with the room. You can hold strong convictions and a soft heart at the same time. The best people do.
Conviction in everyday life
Name one value you'd defend even if it cost you. Then find one small, private way to act on it today. No audience required.
Carry this with you
Your actions are your real beliefs.
