Goal Mapping: How to Turn Your Dreams into Realities

Rate this book
"Brian is one of the best at helping people create a world-class blueprint for their life - not just goals but sustainable success" - Anthony Robbins

Goal setting is a natural function of the brain. Every decision is in effect a goal, which triggers a subconscious process that transforms the decision into an action and onto a result. Becoming a master at goal setting is the first step in mastering life.

Why are some people so much more successful than others?

This was the burning question that inspired Brian Mayne to develop his unique Goal Mapping system. The Goal Mapping system fuses eastern and western techniques to create a holistic method to help achieve success. The system uses both left and right brain, bringing words, pictures and symbols together to connect the conscious to the sub-conscious, in a way that your subconscious accepts your goals as the dominant command to be pursued. The Goal Mapping system utilises 7 steps that stimulate whole brain activity to harness intrinsic aspects necessary for any kind of conscious, intended success. The system creates a personalised goal map, combining words and pictures that becomes your blueprint for future success.

About the author

Brian Mayne

12 books5 followers
Brian was born into a travelling fairground family. Further to a nomadic childhood, he left school early with no qualifications and unable to read or write.

He then joined the family amusements business, through which he established a nightclub and became the country’s youngest licensee. Unfortunately, during the UK recession of the late 1980s the business collapsed he lost what seemed like everything: his income, his home and his marriage. He was 29 years old, £1 million in debt and still relatively unable to read or write.

It was at this seemingly low point that Brian discovered the keys to success: that you can change your life by changing your thoughts and feelings about it.

Using simple but powerful techniques, Brian learned to hold positive thoughts by setting goals, and through those goals he gradually transformed both himself and his life.

20 years later, and Brian is an international speaker on human potential, and has empowered hundreds of thousands of people with his unique systems for success.

I received an advanced reader copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via netgalley and the publishers.

This book has some useful and practical ideas and is accompanied by simplistic drawings to help support the process of these ideas and goals to help bring them into practice.
I enjoyed this book and will try some of the ideas out.

I have been a goal-driven person all of my life coming from a sales background following advice from authors like Brian Tracy and Zig Ziglar. Goal Mapping by Brian Mayne is great for creating visual aids to keep you focused on your goals. Brian using his personal experience takes you step by step through the goal mapping process. Brian doesn't just tell you how to Map out goals he is right there with you showing you how to map out goals. Without the map how would you know where you are going? Thank you, Brian!

Quite good overall. This is a pretty powerful, simple, and effective approach and should work for almost anyone. There's nothing new here, but it's put together in a very effective way. Maybe I've read too many books like this because much of it I've heard before, but that doesn't mean it's not worthwhile or effective. Many of the quotes includes are superb.

Thanks very much for the review copy!!

I love Brian Mayne's down to earth style in presenting his take on the Law of Attraction and how to manifest goals.

He's taken the best of LoA philosophy and repackaged it expertly to appeal to more grounded and less spiritually focused group of readers. In so doing he's opened the LoA up to businesses who seem to be successfully applying his principles and energizing their businesses.

Help through setting up goals and planning them, and some help going through the goals. Different topics and ideas looked at and see what would work with you. Does have a main goal setup the author uses so you don’t multiple goal getting ideas thrown at you.

Mi sono fidata dei commenti letti in rete, pur essendo diffidente verso i libri e le tecniche di auto-motivazione.
Il libro in effetti è chiaro, illuminante, ha delle basi scientifiche e non promette soluzioni miracolose, quindi lo trovo realistico.
Sto mettendo in pratica quanto imparato, ma già durante la lettura ho cambiato velocemente il modo di vedere e di rapportarmi con tutte le piccole cose che affrontiamo ogni giorno.

A fun book, I enjoyed the read. The author's charts are a little simplistic, and I'm not sure if the writer has anything startling new to say.

Still,he presents his ideas about how to achieve your goals in a simple, well-laid out format. I've written down a couple of things the author said to quote him later, and the book is interspersed with a bunch of thoughtful quotes from other sources.

This book annoyed me on a number of fronts. One: hardly an original thought in it. Two: any tosser can fill a book with "inspirational" quotes, and this had hundreds scattered everywhere to the point that they meant absolutely nothing. If you ask me, Brian Tracey ("a good friend of mine") and Tony Buzan should sue the author for plagiarism.

Very open minding. I have to say that I've been forced to buy this book. But after the alter-ego things I realized that I need this book to punch my face about setting up my own dream. Live is short, so make most of it!

What can I say - saw him live, bought the book. I know goal-setting from NLP, but the little pictures did intrigue me.
