i thank my employer for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the in-house toastmasters team. when i first joined the session, i got the best table topic speaker. it was wonderful! then i realised toastmasters is about capturing the audience's attention just in a matter or minutes! how do you capture people's attention just within 3-5 minutes? i didnt know that i am able to do the toastmasters thing.... then the second session, although i didnt get the title for the best speech, i did manage to get full attention and full support from the floor. my topic was 'love has no colour'. it was a story about my family retrospectively from my great grandfather days up till now, where we embraced and still embracing the philosophy of 'love has no colour'. My great grandfather came to malaya all the way from Mysore India, got married to my great grandmother a beautiful ceylonese lady, and my grandfather married to a lovely chinese lady, the tradition went on as my late father married my mum, a beautiful malay girl. but most of all my father discovered the beauty of being a Muslim first, then he got married to my mum, Alhamdullillah......
my point is that dont be afraid to venture into things that you're unsure of, go for it and you will discover the impossible....just like the slogan of adidas...impossible is nothing!
