+> Conviction (noun) -
+> a firmly held belief or opinion.
+
+It's more important to have conviction than to be right. This is because conviction precedes action. Without conviction, it doesn't matter how right you are, you will never do anything.
+
+#### Bad Mindsets
+
+- You only seriously consider in well-trodden paths and popular ideas. You will will suffer the same as everyone else, if you have the same convictions.
+- You are afraid of being wrong. What if you are wrong and you are ridiculed for it, end up destitute, or alone?
+- You are waiting on the perfection.
+
+#### Developing Conviction
+
+Try exposing yourself to the fears driving these mindsets. For example:
+
+- Join a group, or start a hobby that you would consider weird.
+- Go without food for a day, or commit to the cheapest diet you can find for a week.
+- Post a blog post with an obvious spelling mistoke. And don't fix it.
+
+After each of these, reflect on how the actual outcomes compared with your expectations.
+
+#### Hit Me Up
+
+Hit me up, seriously. I love listening to people with ideas. Even if you don't have any conviction, maybe a discussion might help. Contact me however you like.
