Day 1 : the one thing, word Confidence
I had the pleasure of taking Marone's Workshop at Concordia Toastmasters in Montreal. He is a very talented and generous teacher. This is the speech that I did in front of the class. During the workshop, we got transcriptions of what we said word by word. I rewrote my transcript, figured out the grammatical mistakes, and then, as soon as I hit play, I didn't read my script. I started talking about what I learned. I am sure I made new mistakes. That is part of the journey.

@Sonja Rokos . Yes, I noticed that too. I was reading my notes, then not reading them. Funny how our attention shifts between concentrating on the text or the connection we are making. Sometimes it is hard to make it balance.

I love your takeaways. Your conclusions usually end with how to implement what you have said in our own lives. Thanks

Day 6- Opportunity
These last few days I think about how to structure my little speeches here. ;-) I’m having so much fun, and I’m really motivated by all the benefits Marouane offers when you complete the 7-day challenge. It’s a great platform to practice and improve.

As always, you are engaging, you practice what you preach, and it is always a treat to listen to your speeches. Yes I agree with you. I have to get back into the ring and do it.

You have some really strong points. Suggestion: Use the story structure. The one thing about passion is that it fuels happiness. Your statements are very strong, and they resonate with your audience. I would do it again, but use the story structure. One thing intro. Make it yours. Give us a personal story that allows us to connect with your words of wisdom.

Well-structured speech, Cristian. The conclusion resonated with me. Look at the silver lining.
