"This training helps me do everything better and more efficiently. I'm a believer!"
Corporate CEO:
“My team (that was in the MPT program) are learning faster and remembering better.”
“Our meetings are much more efficient and we are accomplishing more in less time”
“For the first time when I play golf I don’t get upset anymore at a bad shot. I calmly assess what I might have done wrong and have confidence that I will do better the next time”
Corporate Operations Director:
“I am able to identify areas that I am not as skilled at so I can focus on improving”
“I had a GREAT work out today (after MPT). I upped the incline level on the treadmill and increased the mph rate. And I felt good and not struggling to finish - AT ALL. If I had more time I would have extended the jog for 40 minutes instead of 30. Coincidence? I think not.”
Ministry Leader
"I've taken the training and it has helped increase my awareness, focus and seeing things from many different angles and directions. It's fun, competitive and can be taught in a few hours, but with the ability to practice on skills whenever you have some free time. Very creative."

Corporate HR Director
“We had our quarterly budget meeting today, which usually runs several hours and everyone hates each other by the time we finish. Today we were done in 90 minutes and everyone was singing kumbayah! Dennis (CEO) said it must have been the training so we’d like you to come back and train our customer service and sales departments.”
Executive Assistant to CEO:
“MPT increased my cognitive skills and built my confidence while facilitating a much needed bonding experience among our team.”
Leadership Consultant
“I recognized immediately the immense possibility the MPT program would have for new leaders. MPT provides the individuals trained with enhanced focus, decision making abilities and confidence at a minimum. The process allows a team to share in a system that transcends itself and can easily become an efficient structure for meetings, conversations and projects.
I highly recommend this innovative program - because not only is it good, its fun!”
Professional basketball player:
“After only a couple weeks practicing the exercises I’ve noticed a big improvement in my focus and reaction time.” His coach concurred, adding noticeable improvements in learning and communication ability.
Corporate Vice President:
“Our daughter was diagnosed with an unusual eye disorder. She had tremendous difficulty tracking words from left to right and she was unable to consistently jump from one word to the next which obviously had a negative impact on her ability to learn to read. After two weeks practicing the MPT exercises we brought her to her checkup with the specialist. He was amazed at her progress and said “Whatever you’re doing, keep it up!”
“She was also diagnosed with ADHD which added to her learning struggles. To our surprise we watched her really come to life. She was having fun and she was able to concentrate while becoming more proficient in manipulating the games. The best part was that MPT wasn’t “therapy”. This was a little girl playing games but benefiting from having fun and not even knowing that she was strengthening those areas of deficiency. The more she played the better she did in school. Finally, we incorporated this into our bedtime routine with the whole family and found that we were all benefiting from the techniques but also it was a way to have fun communication time with all of our kids. We saw the same benefits with our two younger children who began playing with the games as well. John made a huge believer out of me and what a fun way to have fun with the whole family!”
Wounded Warrior diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury:
“I can really feel my attention ability improving. Not only can I stay focused longer, but when my mind starts to wander I can bring it back to attention much faster.”
Mother of daughter with 14 non-cancerous brain tumors:
“My daughter really struggled in school and had a measured IQ of only 70 due to the crowding from the tumors. John showed us how to practice the exercises and we saw considerable progress in her school work. I really believe in the program.”
2007 Marine Corps Leftwich Award for Leadership Recipient, 3rdMarDiv Regimental Schools Officer in Charge :
“Mental Performance Training is the first innovation in military training since WWII.”
“I applied MPT to the 3D Reg. Rifle Pistol Team … they won the Rifle Team Gold at the Pacific Division Matches. This was a team in which 3 of the 4 shooters were new to competitive shooting.”
“MPT may actually improve cognitive ability to Observe, Orient, Decide and Act better and faster than their opponent and offer a concrete training solution to those who freeze or get over excited under high stress.”
Corpsman for first MPT pilot platoon:
“I have to teach these Marines what I do so they can save my life as well as others if necessary. When I was in LeJeune it was like trying to teach rocks – these guys are so sharp they’ll put me out of a job!”
Marine Embedded Transition Team Commanding Officer
“I have my men practice at the end of every day. It wakes us up and I know it will help us stay focused in Afghanistan..This will help us in our mission to “Train, Mentor, and Advise”
Marine Corps Shooting Team Palma (1000, 900, 800 yds, iron sites, no scopes) competitor
“I used to lose my focus after 10 shot’s; the mental strain was too great. Now I can keep focused for all 15 after 6 hours of MPT.
Forward Air Controller requested help with his Radio Operator who was having significant problems with correct coordinates. Five days after practicing exercises, said:
“No more problems with coordinates and his self - confidence has increased significantly.”
Regimental Schools Martial Arts Chief Instructor:
“It used to take me a week to learn a new jujitsu move, now I have it in a couple hours.”
1st Marines Special Operations Battalion Company Commanding Officer after observing his men post-MPT at the Mountain Warfare Training Center:
"We noticed all of our teams completed the mountain orienteering package much faster than expected. Their route planning is good, but seemed especially sharp in this exercise."
"One of my element leaders told me that his ability to remain focused in his mission planning has improved noticeably, beyond the point at which he felt exhaustion previously."
