Five Sage Powers

It is through experience that we live. I can attest to the shift that PQ® offers, having integrated PQ® into my life personally. I first started using PQ® to find more fulfillment and to learn to pause. You know how they say, “Stop and smell the roses!” Well, I needed to. So, I made the conscious decision to get deliberate with my life. This comes from spending 10 seconds noticing how my watch feels on my wrist, the wind on my face, and so much more. How often do you miss the sensations of life? What could your life look like if you lived outside the bullied thoughts that drive you?

Positive Intelligence Quotient (PQ®) is “the percentage of time that your brain is working positively (serving you) versus negatively (sabotaging you).” Your PQ® is the measurement of your mental fitness. Mental fitness requires three core muscles; Saboteur Interceptor, Self-Command, and Sage. Meditation only focuses on Self-Command, which is why it is not sustained by most. “Your potential is determined by many factors, including your cognitive intelligence (IQ), your emotional intelligence (EQ), and your skills, knowledge, experience, and network. But your Positive Intelligence (PQ®) determines what percentage of your vast potential you achieve.” Integrating PQ® into your daily living experience improves relationships, performance, and overall wellness. These foundational benefits continue to grow as PQ® integrates subconsciously into your everyday living.  

The PQ Vortex

A vortex is an energetic phenomenon that either pulls you down or lifts you up. Shirzad discovered the optimum PQ® score to be above a 75. This is the tipping point at which people are either being dragged down by saboteur thinking or uplifted by a sage mindset. The higher your PQ® score the more happiness you will experience.

PQ®

PQ® determines how much of your actual potential is being achieved.

Achievement = Potential X PQ®

Achieving your potential depends on multiple factors which include your cognitive intelligence (IQ), emotional intelligence (EO), life experiences, knowledge, skills, network of people and more. 

Happiness

When you factor in the percentage of time you experience life’s positive and desirable feelings created in sage you are actually calculating your PQ® Score. Your PQ® Score is your happiness meter. 

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 the PQ® Program empowers you to do.

How does the PQ® Program work with Life Coaching?

The Positive Intelligence® Program is an app-guided program accessible on your phone or computer. In the first six weeks, the Program develops your three core mental muscles: saboteur interceptor muscle, self-command, and sage through weekly videos and daily practice. Upon completing the 6-week Program, your continued practice helps strengthen your mental fitness. The subsequent week’s new modules in the app enable you to use these muscles for various work and life applications. You will continue to grow deeper self-awareness through the coaching process, moving towards greater happiness. PQ® Focused Coaching sessions are devoted each week to the work you are learning in the app. Longer Coaching sessions assist you in applying your self-awareness toward your daily living needs.

Mental fitness is for life, just as physical fitness is required to reach new heights. Living life can be challenging, or we can take it on with a stronger sage mind. By maintaining your fitness, you will soar higher than you ever expected.

Saboteur vs. Sage

Saboteurs – are the internal enemies that “are a set of automatic and habitual mind patterns, each with its own voice, beliefs, and assumptions that work against your best interest. These motivate you through negative emotions like fear, stress, anger, guilt, shame, and insecurity and are found in the brainstem, limbic system, and parts of the left brain.

Sage – “represents the deeper and wiser part of you” that thinks big picture and avoids succumbing to the inconsequential issues of the moment or the lies of the Saboteurs. These motivate you through positive emotions like empathy, curiosity, creativity, passion, and purpose.  Sage is found in the Middle Prefrontal Cortex, Empathy Circuitry, and parts of the Right Brain.
