Using Language Effectively In Public Speaking

“Many people believed that the real obstacle to success in public speaking is fear. We are afraid to speak to a group of people in public. So we join a Toastmasters club. After conquering the fear, we make another surprising discovery…”

The real fear may not be the delivery of a speech, but the mastery of the language and the oratory skill required in a speech. How can we learn to speak eloquently?

Fear of Public Speaking

So, is Public Speaking Your #1 Fear?

Well, you’re not the only one:

According to most studies,
people’s Number One Fear is Public Speaking.
Number Two Fear is death. Death is Number Two!!!
Now, this means, to the average person, if you have to go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.

- Jerry Seinfeld –

And the good news, there’s a club that provides:

  • A step-by-step Educational Program to ensure your public speaking success
  • A meeting room for you to do your public speaking practice
  • A supportive audience
  • A mentor to help your public speaking progress
  • A Speech Evaluator to provide you with positive feedback after EACH delivery

TPCTMC

This blog is an extention of a website known as tpctmc.org, otherwise known as Toa Payoh Central Toastmasters Club of Singapore.

A 1st posting was originally published here. Then moved to tpctmc.wordpress.com, then back here again.

Over at Wordpress.com, I took almost 3 hours to go through every template, found the one I felt most suitable to fit in the heading only to discover that color of the link and rest of the font were of the same color.

Logged in the admin area have all the links underlined.
Now it looks like a link but what happened if I should switch to another theme again?

The lack of control is heating things up a little.
If only I could make a change at the CSS area … well, that’s something for a paid member.

So I’m back here again.

Soon this site will replace those lost search position of TPCTMC

Applied EQ 201 by 1st District 80 Governor – Gea Ban Peng, DTM

Have you ever felt that life is not fair?
Many of us are well qualified, highly skilled, and we work very hard every day. Yet our journey in life has not been as smooth as it can be. There seem to be more obstacles, obstructions, and objections everywhere you turn. There was never enough time. There was never enough money. We were not given fair opportunities.

Do you sometimes feel that people take advantage of you?
People are not what they make themselves out to be. You go the extra mile for your friends. But they do not appreciate you, they do not reciprocate when you need help, and they do not care. In fact they can be so unkind, uncaring, and unhelpful. And everywhere you go the people are the same!!!

Do you want to know the secret? (more…)

And Chapter #215 continues …

Well, the chapter meeting #215 was adjorned. but the word of the evening “MOMENT” by the Language Evaluator, Charanjit Singh ACG, CL, didn’t ended there.

Michael, our newly joined member continued with this:

Hi
Thanks for the warm reception. The MOMENT I was on the third level, Yiang Ping was there to welcome me and Chai Tun made me feel at home. It was comfortable to have Peter beside.

The website drew me to the club – both informative and informal. Well done President and Webmaster. A feather to your cap. The website hints a family-friendly environment that is serious in education and development of members. It proved true.

We have our reasons to join TM. Maybe I can be down for the ice breaker next meeting to share on my objectives in joining TM – not very differnt from most of you but not necessarily the same. It is the MOMENT of truth.

Michael TP40

Riddle: What appears twice in a MOMENT, once in a minute but not in a second or hour or day or week or year?

Yiang Ping, the MAD one, the Mentor for Membership and sometimes the Mother of All Mentors asked, ” What is M?”:

Wow James… You are very smart can guess the answer of Michael’s riddle in “just a moment”!

May I invite all our members to contribute… In the Spirit of Toastmasters…

What is M?
