Breaking The Wall
An article by : DAI , Qianwen Aimee
remind myself that if I could not
eventually be a DTM, ( a distinguished
Toastmaster) How could I lead him? up that role, so I decided to step up and
cooperate with other 6 clubs.
I have empowered some members to
Toastmasters, as we all know, is where
leaders are made. We have heard and
read this sentence a lot. But do you also
want to be a good speaker and a good lead different teams, and invited many
excellent speakers. In the end, to our
surprise, we sold out over 100 tickets
and everything went well with our
leader at the same time? Napoleon said,
“He who doesn't want to be a general
isn't a good soldier.” I say, a toastmaster
who does not want to be a leader is not a
good speaker. We are born to be
different, and we have our own
leadership styles. You can be a good collaboration and efforts. We broke the
walls together through teamwork.
On the last lecture, Prof. Randy Pausch
said, “The brick walls are there for a
reason. The brick walls are not there to
keep us out. The brick walls are there to
give us a chance to show how badly we
leader only if you want. At toastmasters,
we aim to break our barriers, and the
difficulties and challenges are just like a
wall in front of us. There is no limit if we
want to lead. In 2015, I helped with
organising a joint meeting between HK
Oasis and several Toastmasters clubs in
Guangzhou. At first, I was not the chair.
But eventually, nobody wanted to take   want something. Because the brick walls
are there to stop the people who don’t
want it badly enough. They’re there to
stop the other people.” In life, there is
always an unknown wall in front of us,
no matter what it is, no matter how
frightened we probably feel, we shall
always break the wall and move on to
build better us!
