Topic: Realise your true potential through goal setting and goal mapping by Ian Oakley

Goal Mapping is a process that powerfully impacts your visionary goals upon your subconscious. The process is a combination of ancient wisdom and modern accelerated learning techniques, woven together with success principles into one holistic system, which appeals to everyone, every age and every ability.

Where traditional ‘Goal Setting’ techniques focus on left-brain words and endless repetition, Goal Mapping uses imagery – the language of the subconscious. It is the master skill for achievement in all areas of life: without doubt, the most powerful life empowerment programme for individual, personal, or corporate achievement.

Goal Mapping is a unique, multipurpose human empowerment tool. It can be applied in a number of ways to achieve a variety of different objectives: mapping, tracking, brainstorming, unifying, and future projecting. Every area of life – like any area of an organisation – needs to be goal orientated for success.So come along and enjoy this somewhat brief excursion into the visions of your sub-conscious and hopefully you’ll re-discover a wonderful journey.

Note: Please bring coloured pens/pencils for this talk
