Master Your Mindset

As an entrepreneur, your mind is your most valuable asset. In the pursuit of realising your vision, it’s not just about business strategies; it’s also about forging the mindset you need to thrive.

Our mental and emotional energy is a well-known but the least understood resource. When we cultivate a positive mindset, it reflects in our personal wellbeing and the overall success and wealth of the business.

Until now, systematically developing a positive outlook has been challenging.

The Mental Fitness Coaching with Positive Intelligence© provides a science-backed, practical framework for measurable results. In this programme, I guide you towards creating sustained improvements in performance, well-being, and relationships, while establishing a growth mindset for entrepreneurial success.

The True Cost

The Negative Ripple Effect

The impact of a negative mindset on entrepreneurs can be profound and multifaceted. It affects personal wellbeing. It also greatly affects the success and health of the business. 

A negative mindset is characterised by self-criticism, denial of satisfaction, and the anticipation of worst-case scenarios. It can seem like a motivating force at first. 

Its true cost is often underappreciated. 

No one operates at their best from the state of fear, anxiety, or resentment. A negative mindset prevents entrepreneurs from seeing larger and more impactful opportunities.

Over time, a negative outlook can hurt your relationships and the people around you. It leaves little joy in life.

The Transformation

Harnessing Mental Fitness for Success

When faced with challenges, those with strong mental fitness can navigate through them with less stress and more adaptability. They view obstacles as opportunities for growth and transformation, rather than insurmountable barriers.

Mental fitness drives a positive outlook. It also drives creativity and the ability to pivot to new and innovative solutions. It enables a more proactive and resilient approach to problem-solving, leading to more effective and sustainable solutions.

These crucial aspects of success cannot be overlooked in the competitive landscape of business.

As an entrepreneur, you understand the importance of strategic frameworks. Mental Fitness Coaching will help you develop key skills vital for long-term success. You can start seeing results within weeks.

The Positive Intelligence model is a brilliant breakthrough as it defines, measures, and improves your awareness of your own performance and happiness. It also helps solve the mystery of why so many smart people still fail to be successful.

This is the best ‘training’ I’ve done in my 37 working years… I have experienced a new sense of energy, engagement and possibility both at work and at home — and I am actually getting full nights of sleep!

I feel more optimistic about life and about my marriage because I know that I have these saboteurs that have played a huge part in causing my unhappiness. I recommend this program as a practical way to minimise these unpleasant saboteurs, eventually helping one to find the true self.

Within a short time, I learnt to overcome my blocks and discovered ways to be creative in finding new opportunities. It gave me a renewed sense of optimism and vigour towards the projects I wanted to develop.

All my life, I thought my high achievements were impossible without feeling constant stress.
I’ve now learned to achieve even more with a calm and clear mind. I’m now enjoying every day, not just the final accomplishments.

FAQ

Mental fitness refers to your overall mental wellbeing, outlook, resilience, and ability to cope with the challenges and demands of life.

When you are mentally fit, you’ll handle life’s challenges with a more positive mindset and less stress. 

Think of being physically fit. You can climb steep hills, lift weights, or jog long distances without feeling fatigued or getting injured. 

Similarly, when you’re mentally fit, you can handle challenges without excessive fatigue or negative emotions.

Like physical fitness, mental fitness (PQ) can be measured. PQ assesses your mental fitness level by evaluating the strength of your positive mental muscles versus the negative ones.

Mental fitness training helps you develop mental muscles that intercept negative thoughts and activate positive reflexes. 

Increase mental fitness to drive your business forward while experiencing less stress. Mental fitness is peak performance in the true non-struggle way.

The Mental Fitness program is based on research that has included hundreds of CEOs and their executive teams, Stanford students, elite athletes, over 1,000,000 participants from 100 countries. 

The participants experience immediate and sustained improvements in wellbeing and performance. 

No, the Mental Fitness Program transcends traditional self-improvement courses. It’s designed to elevate your cognitive and emotional agility, enabling you to navigate the complexities of business and life with grace and efficiency.

Most trainings fail because they stop at insight and don’t build habits.  

In the Mental Fitness Coaching programme, you’ll get both the insights AND the sustained change towards a more positive mind. 

New habits happen by laying down neural pathways through consistent daily practice.

That’s why we call this a Mental Fitness.  

The programme treats the root cause, not the symptoms. 

Our factor analysis research has revealed the foundational root-level enablers and disablers of optimal performance and wellbeing.  

Together, they form the core operating system of the mind that can run a massive variety of work and life applications. It is one simple operating system with many applications. 

I offer a variety of options, depending on your situation and goals. Tailored programmes range from one-to-one coaching to small groups of up to five people. The foundational programme lasts for 8 weeks. The programmes in which we apply mental fitness to life and business situations last for 3 or 6 months. Schedule a Discovery Call to discuss the best option for you.

Participants will watch a 1-hour training video once per week (for the first six weeks), attend the weekly 45-min coaching sessions, and practise for a combined total of 15 minutes per day, guided by the PQ App exclusively designed for this program.

This might sound like a lot of time. 

Cumulatively, the time required constitutes less than 2% of your awake time during the program time. 

The benefits of mental fitness are manifold. Mental fitness plays a crucial role in preventing the loss of productive hours each week. It helps you handle stress well. It reduces the risk of burnout that can cause big productivity losses. 

This programme gives you tools and strategies to shift from a negative to a positive mindset. This shift lets you navigate business and life’s ups and downs with greater ease. 

It saves time by reducing worry, self-doubt, and indecision. It also fosters a work environment that promotes innovation, creativity, and focused action-taking. 

In summary, mental fitness is not just good for wellbeing. It’s a smart business decision. It can save many hours lost to stress and unproductive behaviours each week.

During the first weeks, you get to build a new foundation for your Mental Fitness. 

The first weeks of the Mental Fitness Programme are about building your ‘mental muscles’. It’s like starting a Physical Strength and Conditioning Programme.

You install the basic Positive Intelligence© (PQ) Operating System. It shifts power from a negative to a positive outlook. You gain mastery over your mind. You quiet the negative and activate the positive part of your brain. 

Many programme participants see significant wellbeing improvements within weeks. 

In later weeks, we apply the PQ Operating System for business and life situations.

The programme is delivered in collaboration with Shirzad Chamine, a Stanford Professor, author of the book ‘Positive Intelligence’, and creator of the Positive Intelligence© Programme.

The 6-week Positive Intelligence© programme is delivered via the PQ App, exclusively for the programme.

As a Certified Mental Fitness Coach and a licensed Training Provider, I’ll guide you through the programme and coach you on applying PQ in business and life situations. You’ll receive weekly personal coaching sessions via Zoom.

Absolutely! Having your family member, friend, or a work partner to go through the program with you makes the experience even more fun and powerful. 

The benefits of mental fitness have profound ripple effects across your personal and professional lives.

Having a partner with you to raise positive intelligence at home and work strengthens your relationships. Potential problems become opportunities.
