AQ: Pass the Mental Fitness Challenge

Posted by Orrin Woodward on February 28, 2012

Adversity Quotient is essential for success. A person will never rise to the mental fitness challenge until he develops it. The formula for AQ is: AQ = IQ (Intelligence) + EQ (Emotional) + WQ (Will).  When a person combines these three factors, he has an unbeatable AQ. Indeed, I have never met a champion in any field that hasn’t mastered the concept of AQ.

When I wrote RESOLVED: 13 Resolutions for LIFE, I attempted to place the concepts of AQ in another resolution. However, AQ refused to stay out! In fact, as I wrote the book, I realized that without AQ, all the other resolutions are not enough. For many times, a person will do many things right, but just won’t stick around long enough for the success recipe to gel. This is where AQ delivers the secret sauce for success. 🙂

Are you rising mentally to the challenge of AQ in your life? Here is a short video to help you on the journey. Sincerely, Orrin Woodward
