Excerpt from a YouTube interview (Scott Duffy interviewing Tom Bilyeu) in which Tom Bilyeu discusses why purpose/"why" matters in business and stresses the need for personal conviction to pursue a vision even when others doubt you. He distinguishes blind belief from conviction rooted in seeing a path from the present to a much larger future.
I always hear people talk about their why, you know, why it's so important to business to be rooted to your purpose. If people don't believe in your idea, that's a great thing. It's because people can't see what you see. But the truth is, you may be about to be really wrong. And people have to understand that. And you've got to have the conviction in yourself that you understand something that other people don't understand. It can be blind belief. It's got to be belief rooted in you see something, right? So you've got to see the path from where you are to where it becomes big.
