The Summit Wheel.
Two short wheels, one powerful read. First map where your life needs work — the classic Wheel of Life. Then mirror how you respond when things get hard — the four Cs of mental toughness. The crossover shows you not just what's wrong, but why it stays wrong — and the tool that changes it.
The where, the how — and the crossover.
Most self-assessments tell you what's wrong. Almost none tell you why it stays that way. Three minutes, two wheels, one read that does both.
Map the terrain.
You rate: your satisfaction, 0–10, across eight areas of life — career, money, health, family, friends, love, fun, growth. It shows: where life needs work — the classic Wheel of Life, drawn live as you score.
The where — which area of your life is asking for attention.
Mirror the climber.
You rate: the pattern you bring into hard situations — eight honest statements across the four Cs of mental toughness: control, commitment, challenge, confidence. It shows: how you meet pressure, whatever the arena — because the same you walks into every one of those life areas.
The how — the response pattern that follows you everywhere.
Where × how = why it's stuck.
The wheels crossover: your lowest life area against your lowest toughness factor. It shows: not just what's wrong, but why it stays wrong — and it names the two tools from the expedition kit to work it loose, with your two-wheel graphic to download and keep.
The read — a prescription, not just a diagnosis.
When you want it measured.
The wheels are honest self-reflection — a mirror. When you're ready for the validated measure, the MTQ Plus psychometric and a 1:1 debrief turn your profile into a plan for exactly the areas your wheel flagged.
The measure — the MTQ Plus assessment, £95 including the debrief.

The wheels are the mirror. The MTQ is the measure.
This is self-reflection — honest, useful, and free. The MTQ Plus is the validated psychometric behind Wheel 2, measured across the same four Cs, with a 1:1 debrief that turns your profile into a plan for exactly the life areas Wheel 1 flagged.

Wheel 1 is the classic coaching Wheel of Life. Wheel 2 — the Summit Wheel — is a self-reflection exercise structured around the four factors of mental toughness (control, commitment, challenge, confidence). Neither is a psychometric instrument and neither contains MTQ items. MTQ Plus assessment delivered by Ricky Munday, AQR Licensed User.
Eight tools. Two for each C.
Every crossed read prescribes two of these. Each tool trains one factor of mental toughness — work yours for a few weeks, then retake the wheels and watch the shape change.
Base Camp Routines
No summit push survives a broken base camp. Audit the foundations — sleep, energy, environment, the first hour of the day — and rebuild them deliberately. When life feels like it's happening to you, this is where the levers come back.
The Storm Protocol
Storms pass — if you let them pass through you, not into you. A rehearsed three-step reset for high-pressure moments: breathe (long exhale), anchor (one true thing you control), act (the next smallest move). Practised calm beats improvised calm every time.
The Route Plan
Busy without a summit is just motion. Name the peak, then stage the camps — dated, visible, reachable waypoints between here and there. Effort turns into progress the moment it has a route.
Camp-to-Camp Commitments
You don't climb a mountain; you climb to the next camp, again and again. A weekly promise system — small moves, written down, kept — that makes consistency automatic and abandoned attempts rare. No heroics, always forward.
The Exposure Ladder
Comfort shrinks to fit whatever you keep doing. Build a ladder of progressive, chosen discomfort — each rung slightly beyond the last — and climb one a week. Stretch becomes a habit instead of a fright.
The Debrief
A setback unmined costs you twice. Three questions, in writing, every time: what happened, what did it teach, what changes next attempt. It's how a 2017 retreat from Everest became a 2018 summit.
The Evidence Log
Belief shouldn't depend on mood. Keep a running bank of proof — things you delivered, hard moments you handled — and review it before every big push. Confidence built on record, not feeling.
The Rope Team
Nobody summits alone. Build and use your rope team — the asking, the asserting, the being heard that unblocks what effort alone can't. The conversations you're not having are usually the bottleneck.
The MTQ Plus — the validated version of Wheel 2.
The Summit Wheel mirrors how you see yourself. The MTQ Plus measures it — a world-leading, research-backed psychometric across the same four Cs, followed by a 1:1 debrief that turns your profile into a plan for exactly the life areas your wheel flagged. Assessment £95, including the debrief.

Is this the MTQ?
No — and that's deliberate. The Summit Wheel is a free self-reflection mirror structured around the same four factors of mental toughness. The MTQ Plus is the validated psychometric instrument, delivered with a 1:1 debrief. The wheel gets you thinking; the MTQ gets you measured.
How long does it take?
About three minutes — sixteen quick ratings across two wheels, then your combined read appears instantly. No login, no right answers, just honesty.

Can I retake it?
Please do — that's the point. Work your two priority tools for a few weeks, retake both wheels, and compare. If you take the MTQ and coaching route, we make that before-and-after formal: a measured re-assessment that proves the change rather than just feeling it.
