"First time, first win!", someone said last night...

Do you remember how I decided to improve my video-making and public speaking skills a few months ago?

For those of you who are new or don't remember, here are a few steps in that journey:

Celebrating a Successful Public Speaking Opportunity: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/megawealthy9/blog/celebratin...

Oh My Goodness! What did I just do!?: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/megawealthy9/blog/oh-my-good...

Making Videos for my Youtube Channel: Lessons #3, #4 and #5 Learned :-): https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/megawealthy9/blog/making-vid...


Well, all this work paid off nicely yesterday evening.

You see, a few weeks ago, after posting a video on my personal FB page, a friend recommended I check out Toastmasters, to learn more. I did, and went to my first meeting yesterday evening, as a guest, at the Toastmasters club in Leuven, Belgium.

*

It was very interesting! I loved it! I used what I had learned in my public speaking training so far and volunteered to participate in the improvisation part, called "table topics" (the only one I was allowed to enter as a guest/non-member).

10 seconds to choose 1 or 2 pictures and 30 seconds to prepare a 2-minute speech... 😅 Everything before about 30 people and recorded on camera... 😅

My heart was beating fast and I was shaking! But I did it! 🤗🎤

Everyone present could vote for the best speaker in each category. I was honored to be voted best speaker of the improvisation/"Table Topics" category!! Yay!

That really encourages me to continue on my path. 😁✨

May this inspire you to believe in yourself and continue on your path too... progression not perfection is key... ✨

To our Success, 💖

Nathalie
