CO²RE Model (Adversity Response Dimensions)

DimensionMeaningHigh AQ ResponseLow AQ Response
C – ControlHow much influence you believe you have over the adversity“What can I do about this?”“I have no control”
O² – Origin & OwnershipWhere you believe the cause comes from & how much responsibility you takeFocus on specific causes + owns part of responseBlames self globally or avoids responsibility entirely
R – ReachHow far the adversity spreads into other areas of life“This is limited to this situation”“This affects everything”
E – EnduranceHow long the adversity is expected to last“This is temporary”“This will last forever”

If you want, I can also turn the LEAD sequence (Listen, Explore, Analyze, Do) into a one-page cheat sheet or flowchart.
