Last night we inducted three new members into our club: Julia, Alex and Zaharah. All the best as you learn to grow and succeed at Toastmasters.
Please welcome our new “Drill“ Sergeant at Arms… Felix. Hope you are all ready for a workout !!
Clem was our Toastmaster and he encouraged us to accept being a “cracked pot”. We are not born perfect. But we are all born with a purpose.
We listened to two great speakers: Yury and Alana.
Yury informed us that our club was “sick “and that we needed to take the necessary steps to remedy the situation. (1) Set a goal. (2) Get a mentor. (3) Track our progress in real time. These steps will help us achieve success as a group as well as personal self-development.
Alana added to this concept of self-development by presenting to us ( 5 ) ways to design our lives. These points are very key to helping us become a better and fulfilled person.
(1) Know your personal comfort zone
(2) Learn to network
(3) Create a life plan
(4) Purge the old; make room for the new
(5) Accept the new chapter in your life
Our Table Topics winner was Sean.
