People don’t buy what you do; they buy why you do it. And what you do simply proves what you believe.

What's the meaning of this quote?

Quote Meaning: When it comes to selling or influencing others, it's not just about the product or service we offer, but the underlying belief or purpose behind it. People are more likely to connect and resonate with the "why" behind what we do, rather than just the "what." When our actions are aligned with our beliefs and values, it can be a powerful motivator for others to buy into our vision or mission.
