ICRAVE “Making It”

You are not what your surroundings are.  You are what you do.

  • It’s not about the glitz and the glamour and the shine; it’s not about what we have; it’s about our heart.
  • It’s about people (you and me) understanding that we are fully capable.

We’re in control of our lives, and nobody can take it from you.

  1. Hard work works
  2. Make good choices
  3. Value people

“Don’t pursue profits; pursue your passions and your purpose.”

  • We need to take time to figure out our “why.”
  • Pursuing passions and purpose will always produce gains and profits socially, emotionally, and financially.

“I can’t control what you think about me.  I can’t control your opinion of me.  I can’t control what you say about me, but I control how I react, respond, and what I do with my life.  I’m in control of my life.  I don’t let external factors control me.  I’m in control of my life.”

You can’t let people hold you back.  Who you surround yourself with matters.

  • Take ownership of your life.
  • Encourage somebody by being a voice of hope and inspiration.
  • You are not an island; you can’t do this alone. 
  • Make good choices and great things happen.

Change doesn’t happen by accident, change takes intentional choices for things to be different.

Look in the mirror every day and say, “I don’t need to be perfect, I just want to progress today.  Every day, I am going to get a little bit better.”
