Mental Fitness is The X-Factor for Your Success

Did you know that 80% of people score below the minimum level of mental fitness required for peak performance and happiness?

Much like your physical fitness, if you’re not in good shape, it’s difficult to climb steep hills. The same goes for mental fitness—if you have mental stress such as anxiety, frustration, or unhappiness, it’s difficult to handle work and relationship challenges.

BUT THERE’S GREAT NEWS!

Recent breakthroughs in neuroscience and technology have shown that you can now improve your mental fitness significantly within 6 weeks of practice. This will result in improved performance and productivity, and a calm, clear, and happier mind.

Measuring Mental Fitness With PQ

What is Positive Intelligence (PQ)?

Measuring Mental Fitness With PQ

Positive Intelligence Quotient, or PQ, is the measure of your Mental Fitness. It’s the best predictor of how happy you are and how well you perform relative to your potential.

You can boost your Positive Intelligence Quotient significantly with practice.

Why The PQ Training Program Works

Compared to PQ training, traditional training has a short-term impact for 3 reasons:

  1. Focuses on insight rather than the muscle: For instance, gaining insights into your frustrations doesn’t automatically eliminate them. That requires your mental muscles to shift brain activation.

  2. Treats the symptoms rather than the cause: For example, learning active listening techniques to improve empathy will only have a temporary impact if your deeply-seated Judge Saboteur is not identified and intercepted.

  3. No common operating system: Each training you attend uses a different framework—the 7 steps of managing conflict, the 5 secrets of managing time, etc.—the frameworks compete for mind share, and all fade away.

A Common Operating System

Whether it’s learning to manage conflicts, managing time, or performing better under pressure, all personal and professional development become applications of the PQ operating system:

  • Intercept Saboteurs
  • Issue Self-Command (through 10-second PQ Reps)
  • Employ Sage (Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, Activate)

This simple framework can be used for a variety of applications to boost root-level mental fitness.

The Science is Based on Shirzad Chamine’s book

The latest breakthroughs in neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, and performance science

Research that included hundreds of CEOs, sales, operations, and technology teams, Stanford students, elite athletes, and 500,000 participants from 50 countries revealed that:

  • Saboteurs and Sage live in entirely different regions of the brain.
  • You can cause a dramatic shift in brain activation
    to weaken Saboteurs and boost Sage.
  • 3 core muscles constitute mental fitness
