Nothing could be easier: 1) Spin the Time Prism... 2) Choose a Color to improve... 3) Improve it!
For people who are just casually interested in performance improvement, we invite your attention to our simple, 30 day TQ Workshops. Click Here...
For people who are serious about rapid personal and professional development, savor the rest of this page!
To many, it will seem like a miracle — to others, a magical transformation from the person you are right now — to the person you are destined to become. Some of our customers even rate the experience spiritual and thank God each day for TQ. (This is not an exaggeration. Watch the videos and read a few of the stories.)
The key is to engage in the continuous process of daily Self-Measurement... Self-Evaluation... and Self-Improvement.
The great news is that this only takes 5-10 minutes each day.
TQ is the fastest and easiest way to impregnate your imagination with information and inspiration to move you up towards the results you want and the success you desire.
Make this your daily ritual and you will truly live a life of passion and purpose. You will succeed brilliantly.
Universal Instructions For Becoming TQ Smart...
TQ (Time Quotient) is the effective measurement of your "working intelligence" — your ability to produce outstanding RESULTS in far less TIME.
There are 7 recommended ways to access the integrated tools, systems and resources here. While each is a unique path forward, they are dependent on your TQ Test Scores.
Your TQ Test breaks your performance down into 10 Color-coded broad categories, and from there, the 10 Factor Actions that drive the intensity of that Color.
Your objective is to keep all 10 Colors burning in the 8-9-10 range all day long... every day you are alive. Improving your life is not a one time event. It is a continuous, daily process that we make fun, interesting and easy to do. To better understand the big WHY behind our approach to learning, remembering and mastering these success-critical ideas, please take a moment to read the full instructions for properly using Today's TQ!
At the most basic level, it comes down to this simple progression:
Read Today's Daily Lesson In Excellence >> Take your TQ Test >> Review your Color Chart frequently >> Select a Color to improve >> Choose a Factor to improve >> Get ideas to improve it >> Take smarter actions by accentuating performance POSITIVES and eliminating performance NEGATIVES. Get better RESULTS. Repeat daily until healthy, wealthy and wise!
Regardless your path, here you will find everything you need. All in one place.
No excuses. No fear. No rationalizations. No regrets.
Do what we advise, and you will quickly become all that you are meant to be... fully alive in body, mind and spirit... with the right to expect that the rest of your life will in fact be the best of your life.
Some people find that 5-10 minutes each day on site is all they need to keep their edge sharp and glowing. People that start with a low TQ Score (20-40) will need to do the additional work necessary to get their numbers up. The great news is that we have made this fun, fast and much easier because of our measurable, sequential, systematic processes.
If you get stuck, request a personal coaching call. The investment, small... the return great. It is no more complicated than that.
Pathways to Success...
First, to get a Gold Standard baseline for improvement, do all the exercises in The Power of TQ and 10 Choices of Intentional Excellence. Here you will see exactly what you must do differently to achieve the results you want and the success you desire.
