How to Effectively Present Abstract Ideas and Goals to Other People


We are a group of personal development enthusiasts who meet once a week to talk about some interesting topic related to personal development. This is an informal meeting, so we will learn from each other’s experiences, struggles, knowledge and tips about presenting. Our main platform is Meetup so check us out there!

Come join us at Starbucks Coffee, Mutley Plain, Mutley, Plymouth, UK for a lively discussion on whether willpower is truly the secret to reaching your goals. We'll explore different perspectives, share personal experiences, and maybe even uncover some surprising insights together. Don't miss out on this chance to mingle, sip on your favorite coffee, and dive into the world of personal achievement with us!
