From the time I walked into my
first meeting a few years back to just this past one, the support and fun
atmosphere I felt from the members has never wavered. Their genuine care in helping members grow into
better speakers, including myself has been done in degrees I would not have
achieved on my own.
Today, Bev as our toastmaster has
shared with us the key. She reminded us
that in order to achieve something, it often entails the well known saying, “Practice
Makes Perfect.” During the introductions,
people talked about practicing patience with children and pets, practicing
their favourite hobbies and practicing to speak in toastmasters.
Following the introductions, we
had to speeches to listen to today. It
started with a very special guest Jenny Gates on her speech on “Nothing”. It was an inspirational story which we all
hope she has a chance to share with everyone on the next contest stage.
Dianne also gave a speech on “Be
Open to Opportunity” encouraging us to expand our horizons and say yes to a new
opportunity.
Everything tied up so neatly with
the theme of the day, and it was a wonderful theme for me to take away as I
myself head out to a new opportunity.
The success in the things you do, the goals we set up for ourselves, all
can be reached when we practice.
