Your mind can be your worst enemy, and that’s why only 20 percent of us achieve our full potential. In Positive Intelligence (2012), executive coach Shirzad Chamine introduces the Positive Intelligence Quotient (PQ), a measure of how often your mind acts as your friend rather than your enemy. Research studies show links between high PQ scores and increased happiness and performance in teams and individuals. Chamine offers tools and tips for measuring and boosting your PQ. Negative thought patterns, which Chamine calls Saboteurs, inhibit our success and happiness. The master Saboteur is our inner Judge, who constantly finds fault within us and everyone else. We must learn to follow our inner Sage, who promotes self-empathy, exploration of mistakes, and innovative problem-solving.
