Back to Basics

Most of our clubs here meet twice a month and each meeting normally last for two and a half hours. That means we spend only about five hours a month on Toastmasters. It is a very small time slot indeed. And during that limited time we were hoping to be able to achieve what we came to Toastmasters for.

It is very important to be focused in what we do in order to achieve any degree of success in our quest to be a good Toastmasters. Any distractions (acitivities conducted in place of normal meetings ) such yoga sessions, treasure hunts, mountain climbings etc will eat away time we have allotted to Toastmasters. Such activities are not what we came to Toastmasters for !

We were drawn together by the desire to be good speakers and leaders. Lets just make sure that we involve ourselves in activites that will enable us realise those aspirations.
