Saboteurs are the voices in your head that generate negative emotions as you handle life’s everyday challenges. They represent the automatic patterns in your mind for how to think, feel, and respond. Your Saboteurs cause all of your stress, anxiety, self-doubt, frustration, restlessness, and unhappiness. They sabotage your performance, well-being, and relationships.
The Saboteur Assessment is your first step to conquering your Saboteurs — identifying them to expose their lies and limiting beliefs.


The Judge is the universal Saboteur that afflicts everyone. It is the one that beats you up repeatedly over mistakes or shortcomings, warns you obsessively about future risks, wakes you up in the middle of the night worrying, gets you fixated on what is wrong with others or your life, etc. Your Judge activates your other Saboteurs, causes much of your stress and unhappiness, reduces your effectiveness, and harms your relationships.
The Judge works with one or more Accomplice Saboteurs to hijack your mind and cause most of your setbacks. Do any of these seem familiar to you?

Focusing on the positive and pleasant in an extreme way. Avoiding difficult and unpleasant tasks and conflicts.

Anxiety-based need to take charge and control situations and people’s actions to one’s own will. High anxiety and impatience when that is not possible.

Dependent on constant performance and achievement for self-respect and self-validation. Latest achievement quickly discounted, needing more.

Intense and exclusive focus on the rational processing of everything, including relationships. Can be perceived as uncaring, unfeeling, or intellectually arrogant.

Continuous intense anxiety about all the dangers and what could go wrong. Vigilance that can never rest.

Indirectly tries to gain acceptance and affection by helping, pleasing, rescuing, or flattering others. Loses sight of own needs and becomes resentful as a result.

Restless, constantly in search of greater excitement in the next activity or constant busyness. Rarely at peace or content with the current activity.

Perfectionism and a need for order and organization taken too far. Anxious trying to make too many things perfect.

Emotional and temperamental as a way to gain attention and affection. An extreme focus on internal feelings, particularly painful ones. Martyr streak.
Saboteurs start off as our guardians to help us survive the real and imagined threats to our physical and emotional survival as children. By the time we are adults, we no longer need them, but they have become invisible inhabitants of our mind.
Our Saboteurs’ patterns of thinking, feeling, and reacting become soft-coded in our brain through neural pathways. When these neural pathways are triggered, we are “hijacked” by our Saboteurs and instantly feel, think, and act using their patterns.


Your Saboteurs claim they are good for you. For example, your Judge tells you that constantly badgering you over your mistakes and shortcomings causes you to improve and achieve.
And pain can be good for you. If you put your hand on a hot stove, it is good to feel pain so you take corrective action.
But negative emotions, like pain, are only helpful for a quick second to alert you. If you stay stressed, frustrated, or unhappy, you will be tunnel-visioned and not capable of finding the best solution to problems, which your positive brain can do.
So if you’re in negative emotion for more than one second, your Saboteurs are holding your hand on the hot stove and complaining that life is hard.
To conquer your Saboteurs, you need to exercise and build the three core components of mental fitness.

If you’re in negative emotion for more than a second, you’re in Saboteur mode. Label your thoughts and emotions in that moment as Saboteur and let them go. To be able to do that, you need to have studied your Saboteurs and discredited their lies and limiting beliefs.

Boost your ability to command your mind to quiet the Saboteur region and amplify the Sage region. Using 10-second PQ® Reps, you learn to run your brain, rather than allow your Saboteur-hijacked brain to run you.

Your Sage is the one in you that handles challenges with a clear and calm mind, and positive emotions. Your Sage accesses five positive powers. For peak performance, you learn to boost all five powers and know when to use which power.

You can’t defeat an adversary that you don’t see or one that successfully pretends to be your friend. The first step to conquering your Saboteurs is to identify them and expose their lies and limiting beliefs.
