strong-mindedness
Unyielding inner conviction
Strong-mindedness is the quality of having firm convictions and the resolve to maintain them.
Someone with strong-mindedness isn't easily swayed by opposition or pressure: Her strong-mindedness kept her focused despite criticism.
The trait suggests mental toughness and independence of thought, though it can shade into stubbornness.
