Some final
thoughts
IIE® is just like any other language - if
you learn it and don’t use it, you will
forget it. So keep working with
affirmations, and be patient if they
don’t seem to work straight away.
Life is a journey not a destination!
Sharing the information with
others
Some final
thoughts
If you want to share this information
with others, choose to talk to them
about some of the ‘easier’ concepts
such as self-talk and goal setting.
The best way to integrate the
concepts in your private or
professional life is by ‘walking the
talk’.
Reflective thinking
Some final
thoughts
Reflective thinking is extremely
important for personal development,
especially as a preparation for goal
setting.
Why not get a notebook and write down
your thoughts and reflections - and
remember to note the date. Written
goals have more power than those that
are only thought about.
Evaluation Form
Some final
thoughts
Please take a moment to fill in the
evaluation form - your feedback is very
valuable to us. Please leave the
completed evaluation form in the room
before leaving today.
Thank you!
Some final
thoughts
