It’s almost become an addiction.
And the worst part of this addiction is that I’ve changed, no longer can I convince people that I’m really shy and quiet, people see me up there on the stage giving a speech and they see this other person, another me.
And the scary bit is that maybe I am becoming that other me, I love the whole process of speaking, the creativity of writing and preparing a speech, the crafting of words, tones and body language and the fun of performing a speech in front of an audience (and performing it is, a little bit of acting is essential).
Now I’ve stepped up the stakes, in the next 6 weeks I will deliver four different speeches in front of three different toastmasters clubs, yes the addiction has moved up a level, now I’m out preaching my words to not just my own group but to anyone I can get to listen…
It begins tonight in Amsterdam with a tale of scrambled gringos…
