This morning, I was asked to give a short speech on a topic I would not know until the Emcee introduced me and announced the topic. I had input into five different topics that I would cover, but it was still tough to just jump into the subject with only a few seconds warning.
"Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterwards". Vernon Sanders Law
The exercise was to test my confidence in my background and knowledge. It was hard, yet now afterwards, I feel more confident to go into circumstances where I might be asked to speak off the cuff.
Tests are great ways to prove to ourselves how much we have progressed and gets us excited for the future.
Ask a man a question, he'll give you an answer; Give that man a Blog and he'll spew for the rest of his life.
