THE PLICS METHOD™

Clarity • Confidence • Change

The PLICS Method is a structured, four-pillar behavioural framework designed specifically to support people to navigate change, challenge, conflict, and major decisions with clarity, confidence, and composure.

Where most advice is scattered, fragmented, or overwhelming, the PLICS Method brings clarity to the complexities of life.

Across psychology, behavioural economics, emotional systems, leadership models, and decision-making research, thousands of frameworks exist — powerful, but disconnected.
PLICS doesn’t claim to invent human psychology; it organises it.

The PLICS 4 Life Pillars

Every framework inside the PLICS Method whether a cognitive bias, emotional pattern, communication model, or strategic principle, has been reinterpreted, restructured, and integrated across the four pillars of human experience:

Health • Wealth • Lifestyle • Relationships

The method recognises a core truth: no situation exists isolated to a single life pillar.

A relationship issue affects your health.
A lifestyle breakdown affects your wealth.
A wealth decision impacts your relationships.

The pillars are not boxes.
They are systems, each one influencing the others.

The PLICS Method Four Life Pillars diagram, featuring Health as the encompassing outer circle and Wealth, Lifestyle, and Relationships as interconnected inner pillars that influence one another.

The PLICS 5P Situation Framework

Every real situation has more going on than it first appears.

The PLICS Method uses the 5P Situation Framework™ to understand a situation before seeking solutions:

People • Place • Period • Pattern • Perspective

It’s designed to reveal what elements in a situation might be addressed.

What Makes The PLICS Method Different

The foundational concepts referenced across The PLICS Method such as cognitive biases, emotional regulation, communication models, behavioural economics, leadership principles, and decision-making research are publicly available. But the integration, sequencing, application, diagnostic structure, and expression are entirely original to PLICS.

What makes it unique:

A unified system — not a scattered toolkit
Frameworks that traditionally sit in isolation are connected into one coherent method.

A four-pillar lens (The PLICS 4 Life Pillars™)
Every situation is viewed through Health, Wealth, Lifestyle, and Relationships to reveal the real driver.

A diagnostic engine (The 5P Situation Framework™)
People, Place, Period, Pattern, and Perspective create clarity before decisions are made.

A consistent template for turning insight into action
The method converts theory into behaviour and behaviour into change.

The method helps people respond to life, not react to it.
