“The PQ program has been life-changing. With PQ, I’ve become a better listener, improved my most valuable relationships, and become more effective in my work. It’s hands-down the best thing I’ve done for myself and the people in my life.”
– JUSTIN W, Founder and CEO
Mental Fitness Training for Individuals and Teams
A Stanford University research-based six-week program where you’ll learn to:
Increase the time you spend in positive emotions like creativity, empathy and curiosity
Decrease time spent in negative emotions like stress, anger, guilt, frustration and fear
Bring more excitement and energy to life and work
Create habits that improve performance, relationships and well-being
It’s based on Positive Intelligence, aka PQ, an operating system that fuses neuroscience, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral psychology and performance science. Based on the research done by Shirzad Chamine and his team at Stanford involving hundreds of CEOs and their executive teams, Stanford students, world class athletes, and 500,000 people from over 50 countries.
You feel better when you exercise your body. You feel it and so does everyone around you. It’s no different for your mind.
“David Dressler is one of the most intuitive and insightful coaches I’ve ever worked with. With his PQ program, I have radically transformed my ability to remain steady in high pressure situations, and transformed my way of being for the better.”
Do you ever find yourself thinking…
I’m not getting it done.
I’m so scared that…
I’m exhausted by....
I can’t stand….
I wish I wasn’t so…
So much of what we do everyday is driven by negative thoughts brought on by fear, stress, anger, guilt, shame and insecurity. Half the time we don’t even know these saboteurs are running the show in our heads.
You might argue that these thoughts are what drive you to compete, to strive and, even to win… They can. But at what cost?
Do you find yourself feeling stressed out and spinning your wheels?
Working really hard but not seeing the payoff?
Anxious and a bit ungrounded a lot of the time?
Depleted by certain people and envious of others?
Disconnected from the people who matter to you?
There is a better way to self-motivate and achieve performance results through positive emotions like empathy, curiosity, creativity, compassion and purpose.
I can help you.
“I am truly grateful for David’s awesome facilitation of the Positive Intelligence Program. It was and continues to be a profound game changer on how I interact with life and its challenges. The idea of Mental Fitness allows a new language and understanding on how to shift perspective when challenges arise.”

“Working with David during my PQ program was one of the most enlightening and enriching experiences. As a CEO and scientist, I was constantly stressed, never having time for myself, and working 80-100 hours a week. I am now seeing how to be more centered and focused, finding time for myself and much more joy in my days, my work, and my life overall. I would highly recommend the PQ program to anyone, but especially David as a coach.”

“Working the PQ program has brought another piece of awareness to what it means to be human. And with that knowing, I feel better prepared to meet the challenges of growing. The process has not been easy, but David’s leadership in facilitating the program was fun, focused and effective.”
“Positive Intelligence has given me the gift of immediate access to my Sage Mind. Whatever happens in my day, I have the ability to choose my perception of it and react accordingly. Being mentored by David, was crucial. I simply would not have been able to get as much out of this process had I not been led by David.”
