If you have a message inside of you, it’s time to start spreading it. If it is important to you, that means it’s important to put it out there. Of course, you are not going to resonate and connect with everyone.

But, imagine the powerful impact you can have on the ones that are ready to hear your message. As a full time motivational speaker, I know how bad people need motivation and inspiration.

There are so many bad things happening these days. People are struggling financially, emotionally and physically.  If they can put their hand on your message, they would find a bit of consolation.

You don’t need to be on stage and speaking to thousands of people like I am to spread your message. If there is no stage, create your own stage. Maybe you can have an internet radio show, you can use Youtube, put your stuff on a CD, etc.

Today more than ever, it’s very easy to create a platform or a community of like minded people. As long as you delivering solutions, people with problems will flock unto you.

Alright, here’s a question someone asked me. I want everyone to benefit from my answer.

So how can I get started! I’ve always wanted to speak to people about the love of Christ, but I’m not a preacher, minister or pastor. I’m just a everyday person with something big on the inside. I’m ready to step out!

Hi Tonya,

I’m so busy with projects. That’s why it takes so long to respond. The way to start is to start. Don’t wait until things are in the right order. You don’t need any qualifications. You just need to connect with people on an emotional level.

And that happens when you know their pains. Of course, your pains are theirs as well. People don’t care or check where a doctor went to school or even if they went to school. If you can help them with their pains, you are in.

Take the first step. Write an article. Create a ten minutes audio. Call a small church in your area to offer a complimentary training or speech.

Finally, join Toasmasters International in your area.

One thing you have to keep in mind is, meeting planners are looking for credibility when it comes to hiring a motivational speaker.  In fact, being an expert with strong credibility is a shortcut for most meeting planners. Well, it’s the reality for any business. But since this blog is about becoming a motivational speaker, take it as a direct advice to you.

Now, how do you become a credible expert?

Well, there are many ways. And I don’t think I can cover all of them here. But, here’s the best one: WRITE A BOOK! Sorry if the capital letters insinuate that I am shouting. I just happen to strongly believe a book can help you get to the top faster. Read the rest of this entry »

It’s Your Time… It’s Your Moment

I’ll tell you what; there are people out there that I’ll never be able to reach. And it’s the same for some of the big names in this field. There are some people they’ll never be able to reach. They can’t identify with them. Only you can.

I can tell you from experience that I’m reaching a large group of people who would never pay attention to the gurus. For whatever reason, I’m the only one that Read the rest of this entry »
