BPT Self-Assessment Quiz
A short quiz to help you identify your strengths and weaknesses across the three core mental “muscles”: zooming out, connecting the dots, and sense-making.
You’ll receive a personal score, a breakdown of your abilities, and a comparison to the general population—so you’ll know exactly where you stand and what to focus on.

BPT Mental Muscle Workouts
This section will feature a variety of enjoyable exercises and games designed to train the key mental “muscles” behind Big-Picture Thinking.
Daily practices—like working with metaphors, exploring poetry, or solving games and puzzles—are all grounded in research and crafted to help you zoom out, connect the dots, and think more clearly. No need for hours of effort; just like going to the gym, a small but consistent routine can make a big difference.
