Back Again

I can't believe it's been over 15 months since I last wrote something here. There have been a lot of changes in my life since then. The biggest change was having to return to work as I was struggling to pay the bills. I put ideas of self-employment into the background while I settled in to my new position.




The trouble is I ended up back in the same old rut. I like my Job, I like the people I work with and I earn enough to keep the wolf from the door. Despite this I am not really happy with my working life. I don't get a sense of achievement and I don't really feel that I am making an impact on the world.



I have therefore decided to start a business on a part time basis. My passion is public speaking and this is an area where I know I can make a difference to other people's lives.



I tried to make a living as a public speaker and discovered it is not that easy. After much research and development I have come up with a plan that will help others to earn money from public speaking. If you are interested in or know any coaches, trainers, consultants, etc. that you think would benefit from, learning how public speaking will help them make more money then please visit, or ask them to visit, https://www.superiorseminars.co.uk

Happy New Year

Today is the first day in the Toastmasters year.

I am very privileged to be the Division G Governor in District 71 as well as president of Chelmsford Speakers Club.

Public Speaking clubs are a great way to practice both your speaking skills and your leadership skills.

If you need training in public Speaking then speakers clubs can be very useful. progress can be slow but the rewards are very long term. Why not learn the skills quickly with www.bespeak.co.uk and then join a speakers club to hone your skills.

Public Speaking clubs are also very good for sharpening your leadership skills. It is very interesting attempting to lead a group over which you have no innate authority. In the business environment most of us lead in a hierarchy, where we draw authority from the tier above. In a club we have to use our personality to gain empowerment from the group we hope to lead.

This is a useful technique which can be applied back in the workplace to make the leaders job much easier.

Tonight was my first committee meeting as president of Chelmsford Speakers Club. It will be interesting to see how my own leadership develops.
