Strong convictions

Have faith in yourself to see a better future

Self belief and acceptance of ourselves is the first step in getting past where we’ve never been before, and in overcoming and achieving the as yet unknown.

To get there we need discipline,. Self-conviction without discipline is a recipe for disaster. We need to be able to follow through with the faith we put into the unknown, so that we can achieve what we set out to do. But we’ll only ever get there by staying true to the course, and this involves self discipline.

Strong convictions come from having a strong soul. A strong soul comes through experiences that test our character multiple times in multiple ways. But to get to be able to do these experiences in the first place, well, that takes strong convictions.
