ICRAVE Committed-Goal-Solution Focus

Its been said that, “Interest shows up in conversation and commitment shows up in behavior.” 

  • A committed person goes from thinking, “It would be nice to have this or that” to “I must – I will – I am totally committed.”  And then they go and do!
  • When others are relaxing or taking breaks, the achiever continues hustling
    • developing their game plan and looking for opportunities.

If you believe your goals strongly enough, and if you are committed to them, they will eventually bear fruit. 

  • Anything that is given consistent attention will grow.

Master your Thinking

It is more effective to be solution-focused than obstacle-focused. 

  • Take an active role to replace negative thoughts with more useful thoughts. 
  • Take personal control over what you dwell on. 
  • The goal is to prevent yourself from holding on to and replaying negative thoughts.
    • Your thoughts can either create fear, or they can create confidence. 
    • They can create pain, or they can create resolve and joy.  Your thoughts can lead you to take action or they can drive you to withdraw and even give up
