THE SCIENCE OF POSITIVE INTELLIGENCE
Most attempts at positive change fail because we stop at insight and don’t build habits. Sustained change towards a more positive mind requires laying down neural pathways to form new habits through consistent daily practice. And that’s what our PQ® Program empowers you to do.
Find out how you sabotage your own performance, well-being, and relationships, and how to improve.
Build your foundation of your mental and emotional fitness.
Shift the balance of power from your automated negative self (Saboteurs) to your positive self (Sage).
The Survive Region: Your Inner Saboteurs
Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotions as you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent the automatic patterns in your mind for how to think, feel, and respond.They exist in the brainstem, limbic system, and parts of the left brain. They produce much of your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, anger, shame, guilt, frustration, and mind chatter. These negative emotions are only helpful for a second as they alert you to dangers or issues. However, staying in these emotions hurts your ability to see clearly and choose the most impactful response and sabotages your performance, well-being, and relationships.The Saboteur Assessment is your first step to conquering your Saboteurs — identifying them to expose their lies and limiting beliefs.
The Thrive Region: Your Inner Sage
Your Sage lives in an entirely different region of your brain, the middle prefrontal cortex, “empathy circuitry,” and parts of the right brain. It generates positive emotions while handling life’s challenges. These include empathy, compassion, gratitude, curiosity, joy of creativity, and calm, clear-headed laser-focused action. This region is wired for creativity and big-picture awareness of what is important and the best course of action. Activating this region results in release of endorphins that counter the negative impacts of stress-induced cortisol.

Explore the program and PQ reps. Identify the area of growth want to energize your Sage to start to living a PQ-Powered life with improved wellbeing, relationships and performance.
What makes the PQ® Program Different
Focus on Habit Formation
Most trainings result in short-lived improvements. For sustained results, we focus on building neural pathways that form lasting new habits. That’s why we call this “mental fitness.”
Treat Root Cause, Not Symptoms
Our factor analysis research has revealed the foundational root-level enablers and disablers of optimal performance and well-being. We rewire the brain at the root cause level.
Develop Mental Fitness
Mental fitness comes from three components: Catching your Saboteurs (negative response patterns), energizing your Sage (positive brain region), and using your Sage Powers to handle challenges with clarity and resilience.
One Operating System, Many Applications
Through factor analysis, we’ve discovered the core operating system of the mind that can run a massive variety of work and life applications. One simple operating system, many applications.
A Platform for Ongoing Growth
Similar to physical fitness, mental fitness is not a short-term training. After the initial seven week foundation, unlock a variety of work and life applications to continue your growth.
Research-Based, Measurable Results
Our research has included more than a million participants from around the globe. Our tools have been field-tested with tough-minded participants, ensuring their efficacy.
