Meet your PQ Saboteurs
You know that mean voice in your head? It isn’t you. It’s your Judge.
The Judge tells you nasty lies that hold you back from being your best self. The Judge’s partners in crime are the nine Saboteurs:
- Avoider
- Controller
- Hyper-Achiever
- Hyper-Rational
- Hyper-Vigilant
- Pleaser
- Restless
- Stickler
- Victim
These sneaky Saboteurs tell us they’re good for us. They’ve made us successful, sure, but these traits are also keeping us from having the health, wealth and love we crave.
These Saboteurs need to be reined in. But to beat them, we must first discover who they are.
Ready to get RELIEF from your inner critic?
Our GET Thriving Coaching program is specifically oriented to bring RELIEF from the sabotaging thoughts that keep us stuck, telling us we’re inadequate and unworthy. In PQ terms, this critic is called the Judge, though many of us have given this mean voice inside our heads more unique names, such as “the @hole” or “the evil accountant.”
We delude ourselves into believing that we need this judgmental jerk in our heads to keep us on task. We fear we won’t be able to succeed without it. Because this voice is so familiar, it becomes a blind spot. We don’t see how we’re damaging our relationship with others – and with ourselves.
The truth is that no achievement of an external goal will fix our feelings. That’s an inside job.
We hope that by controlling our circumstances that one day, we’ll be able to outrun the ugliness we feel inside.
We can’t.
Instead we need to stop outsourcing our happiness and take back our PERSONAL POWER. We do this through our coaching programs. Book a clarity call to learn more.
Retrain Your Brain
Though GET Thriving Coaching is uniquely geared toward our community, we incorporate the framework from Positive Intelligence to measure your Positivity Quotient. This PQ score can be measured and improved over time.
Studies have shown remarkable, lasting change from small daily improvements. Over this 8-week training program, you work out your 3 core mental fitness muscles.
Intercept Your Saboteurs
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.
Develop Your Sage
Your Sage mind allows you to handle challenges with a clear and calm mind, and positive emotions. Throughout the program, we’ll strengthen the Sage Powers: Empathize, Explore, Innovate, Navigate, and Activate. You’ll learn to boost all 5 powers and know when to use which power.
Strengthen Self-Command
You’re not in full command of your mind. If you were, you would silence the Saboteurs in your head. You wouldn’t feel stressed out and overwhelmed by situations you can’t control. You’d quickly recover from disappointments, and spend little time in anger, regret, and blame.
PQ Training vs. Other Programs
How does the PQ program provide lasting benefits when other training programs I’ve tried haven’t worked?
PQ Training builds your mental muscles. Other programs provide insights into your ingrained habits, but PQ actually helps you shift those patterns by applying the right mental muscle for the situation. For example, if you catch yourself feeling frustrated and you can recognize the Stickler saboteur showing up, you can catch yourself in the moment and practice your Sage muscles instead.
PQ Training addresses the root cause, not the surface symptoms. You may have learned the art of active listening, which is a great way to connect and show empathy toward others. However, if you’re actively listening and being triggered by your Judge Saboteur, you’re still going to unwittingly sabotage the conversation. With PQ Training, you’ll learn to intercept your Judge before they act out.
PQ Training provides a foundational operating system. You can use PQ training as the basis of any other personal or professional training program. Whether it’s learning to have healthy conversations, manage conflict, or sell more, you can always apply the same three PQ steps:
- Intercept the Saboteurs
- Issue self-command (through 10-second PQ reps)
- Mobilize Sage powers
PQ is easy to learn, and only takes two minutes of practice at a time. So many programs are great – but so time-consuming. PQ is a skill you can learn in bite-sized pieces and practice anywhere at any time.
Research indicates a 500% increased likelihood of establishing positive new habits when supported by accountability partners. By joining a GET Group with like-minded participants, you’ll build skills, while creating meaningful connections.
