The Goal Setting Conference (GSC) 2025 wasn’t just an event it was a life-changing experience for everyone involved. From personal growth to moments of kindness, the conference offered attendees and volunteers the chance to reflect, learn, and grow.

Here’s what some participants had to say about this transformative experience.

Emmanuel Festus Okhaleifoh, a member of the Content Team, shared the challenges of volunteering:

“Trust me, it wasn’t easy. My team was always on call, waking up as early as 5 a.m. to ensure everything was in order. We were like the front fighters, making sure no detail was overlooked. Looking back, I’m grateful our efforts weren’t wasted. Being part of the team that contributed to GSC’s success is something I’ll always be proud of.”

His reflection highlights the dedication and teamwork required to make the event a success. Despite the hard work, Emmanuel described the experience as a transformative journey.

For many, GSC 2025 offered a unique platform to meet people from diverse backgrounds. Obiora MakyNora, a volunteer, emphasized the importance of the relationships built during the event:

“What stood out for me was the opportunity to meet and network with diverse individuals. Being part of the registration team taught me the importance of first impressions and the power of organization. The connections I made are ones I hope to nurture beyond this event.”

The energy and passion of the speakers resonated deeply with attendees. For Obiora, one moment stood out:

“Sen. Chijinkem Ugwuanyi’s gesture of offering me a free meal ticket reminded me that small acts of kindness can leave lasting impacts. Beyond that, the speakers’ real-life stories about overcoming challenges inspired me to set clear goals and actively pursue them.”

Nzubechukwu Ogbaideba reflected on the practical lessons learned during the conference:

“I learned that I must take charge of every area of my life to become unstoppable. Writing down plans is good, but having a strategic approach and acting on them immediately is what drives success.”

Nzubechukwu also highlighted the importance of faith and self-care:

“I realized that every man is made by an external, extraordinary force: grace. I mustn’t neglect the God factor in my journey. Also, I was reminded that only a healthy person can achieve their goals. Drinking water regularly is now a priority for me.”

The feedback from attendees and volunteers reveals the many benefits of participating in the conference:

Networking Opportunities: Build connections with global leaders, professionals, and innovators.

Skill Development: Volunteers developed teamwork, event management, and communication skills.

Inspiration and Motivation: Success stories and workshops encouraged attendees to strive for excellence.

Personal Fulfillment: Volunteering provided a sense of purpose and growth.

Summing up the experience, Mex Krisha expressed excitement for the future:

“This conference has helped me set my priorities with clear deadlines. It’s amazing how much I’ve achieved just days after attending. I can’t wait for the next edition of GSC and to see what the rest of the year holds for me.”

GSC 2025 wasn’t just a conference, it was a movement. The event proved that with the right mindset, collective effort, and grace, anything is achievable. Attendees and volunteers alike walked away inspired, empowered, and ready to take charge of their lives.
