Failures Are Really Learning Experiences

After my inspirational speech last night in a small town about an hour from Toronto, one man came up to me and thanked me for my presentation as it gave him the confidence to move on after he lost an organization's district election.  I told him that failures are really learning experiences rather than total true failures that are often regarded as negatives.  I'm glad that I made some impact on him and it's one of the reasons why I do inspirational speeches as often as I could.

Confirmed That Only One Competitor For Each Contest

It has been confirmed that only one competitor from each of the Table Topics and Humorous Speech contests will be representing our Comfortably Speaking Toastmasters club at the area level contest. So that means Dorcas will be our Table Topics rep and Sean will be our speech contest rep. It they bow out, then the second place winners will go in their places. The area level contest is set for September 30 at the Mississauga Civic Centre.
