EP170: Toastmasters Epic Fail
CYPOV Podcast is dedicated to helping Veterans become just as successful out of uniform as they were when they were in. Part of this success depends on how well you are able to speak and communicate! assimilate back into society out of the military. This comes in many forms and levels of success for everyone. For many, finding an organization to become a member of helps them regain their sense of worth and purpose again.
Giving mission briefings prior to rolling out on a mission is one thing, holding a corporate meeting with a bunch of non-veterans is all together different.
One of the best ways I've found to grow and expand these essential skillsets is through Toastmasters International!
IN THIS PARTICULAR EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN:
We are always looking for ways to succeed, I mean who doesn't want to succeed right? But how often do we take advantage of our failures? We all fail, it's part of life and an essential ingredient for success!
Success, after all, is an incredibly terrible teacher! In this episode, Eddie shares the story of his most recent speech contest and how it went so terribly wrong! Epic Fail!
Instead of letting this experience deter him, Eddie sees this as an opportunity to not only become a better speaker but as a way to teach his daughter Hannah how to fail.
