How To Start Speaking And Sharing Your Gifts

Monday, November 9th, 2009

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.

It’s Your Time… It’s Your Moment

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 (more…)

Public Speaking… Can You Become One or Are You Born With It? Here’s My Verdict.

Saturday, February 14th, 2009

I was at Micro Center checking the new Mac Book Pro. That’s right slowly but surely I am becoming a Mac fan! I guess it’s because I am more into videos now. And videos are the future.

While at the store, I started a conversation with a brilliant man. He was sort of perplexed to know someone can actually teach others how to become a motivational speaker. He said, “I don’t think it’s possible. You either have it or you don’t have it. People are born public speakers.”

Oh, oh… He struck a chord in me. At first, I hesitated. Then I got to think about it. I said, (more…)

What I Mean About No College Degree Required To Become A Motivational Speaker

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Okay here’s a comment Thom Wert posted about my last post on You Don’t Need Any Special Education:

No special education nessary?? I agree, but let’s make sure people understand that education is necessarily to be successful. How can you speak on something that you know nothing about? You need to read and study about the subject your going to speak about. Mine you, education doesn’t have to be formal, it can be self taught! You don’t need to go to school (even though some of us get lessons from the school of hard knocks!) So my advice is to choose a subject that interest you, then it will not be a chore when preparing speeches.

And here’s my reply… (more…)
