I Assure You . . .


"The very act of believing creates strengths of its own."

Unknown

But how do we really know what we really believe versus what we think or say we believe?

The answer to that is important when it comes to the difference between our convictions and our willingness to convince others of things we ourselves do not believe.

Let me be the first to admit, I'm not always sure which is which.

Are you?

  1. well, this is a matter of degree isn't it? there are those who know they are lying and do so with no conscience. and then there are those who suspect but are not certain that what they say is not true, but continue to do so anyway, most often, because their job demands that they do. and finally there is a small group who really do believe what they say. as to knowing which is which, well i certainly know when i am in the first and third groups, and also know i spend the bulk of my time in the second

  2. We all spend most of our business lives not entirely believing what we say.

  3. I don't. I don't say anything I don't believe, but I know that is not the case for everyone.
