Convincing or Convicting?

After a talk I often seek feedback on what I could do differently to improve the next time around. 


I asked the wrong questions, and received the wrong answers. 


I seek now not how convincing the talk was, but how convicting.


Did it touch the heart? 


Not what I will do differently, but what they will do differently. 


That is the true measure. 


Convicted not just convinced.
