Why Choose Positive Intelligence?
Mental fitness is a measure of the strength of your positive mental muscles (Sage) versus the negative (Saboteur). This measure of your Mental Fitness is called PQ (Positive Intelligence Quotient). Research with 500,000 participants has shown PQ to be the best predictor of how happy you are and how well you perform relative to your potential.
PQ is a synthesis of recent breakthroughs in neuroscience, cognitive and positive psychology, and performance science. The research included hundreds of CEOs; sales, operations, and technology teams; Stanford students; elite athletes; and 400,000 participants from 50 countries. This research was summarized in Shirzad Chamine's book Positive Intelligence, a New York Times bestseller, translated into 20 languages.
The research reveals 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
- Three core muscles constitute mental fitness
Three core muscles constitute your mental fitness:
- Saboteurs Interceptor Muscle – Your Saboteurs generate all your negative emotions, including stress, anxiety, self-doubt, anger, avoidance, procrastination, insensitivity or discontent. Mental fitness requires the ability to intercept and discredit the Saboteurs.
- Sage Muscle – Your Sage is the one in you that handles challenges with a clear and calm mind, and positive emotions. It also has access to your 5 primary powers. All you need to paint any canvas is 3 primary colors. Similarly, through factor analysis research we’ve discovered that there are only 5 primary powers: Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, and Activate. For peak performance, you learn to boost all five powers and know when to use which power.
- Self-Command Muscle – You’re not in full command of your mind. If you were, you would choose to entirely silence the Saboteurs in your head. You would choose to not stress out over what you can’t control, push away self-doubts, recover from disappointments immediately, and spend little time in anger, regret, or blame.
PQ Reps are innovative 10-second exercises that build up the crucial Self-Command muscle in the brain.
What to Expect from the Program?
Week 1: Boost Your Self-Command Muscle
The first week you learn innovative 10-second PQ Reps that boost your self-command. This enables you to run your brain rather than being run by your Saboteur-hijacked brain. Self-command is key to intercepting unhelpful mental habits and rewiring your brain to respond more effectively.

Week 2: Intercept the Judge Saboteur
For this entire week, you'll intercept and weaken the most damaging Saboteur, the Judge.

Week 4: Shift From Saboteur to Sage
After weakening your Saboteurs, it is now time to strengthen your Sage, the counterpart to your Saboteurs. Your Sage lives in an entirely different part of your brain, generates all your positive emotions, and achieves peak performance through a calm and clear mind.

- Use the 3 Gifts Technique to find the opportunity in setbacks
- Replace draining self-judgment with energizing self-acceptance and empathy
