5 Things I Liked about the Toastmasters District 75 Convention 2017
How are you?
Hope you had a beautiful, fun, and productive looooong weekend!
On May 1, I attended Day 3 of the Toastmasters Philippines Convention 2017. It is an annual convention attended by Toastmasters all over the country.
.
.
By the way, if this is the first time you’ve heard of Toastmasters, it’s a public speaking organisation that exists in 142 countries all over the world. It aims to help its members develop their communication and leadership skills. I’ve been a member of Toastmasters since 2007 and it has really helped me become a better communicator and writer. Anyone can join Toastmasters! You can join Toastmasters!
So here are the five things I liked about the Toastmasters Philippines Discon 2017.
1. Happy to be surrounded by passionate Toastmasters from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
.
.
2. Met the 2016 World Champion of Public Speaking Darren Tay. I also gave him a copy of my book Mission Happiness.
.
.
3. Had a very brief but meaningful interaction with the Toastmasters Regional Advisor Thannimalai Letchumanan. I learned that he also works for HSBC. (I used to work for HSBC). From my brief interaction with him, I sensed his sincerity and humility. Honored to give him a copy of my book Mission Happiness which he accepted with a smile and appreciation.

4. Witnessed the Toastmasters International Prepared Speaking championship, national level. Wow! They were very good! I was inspired to level up my speaking skills.
.
.
5. Fun, food for the brain, and friends.

Special thanks also to our Toastmasters District Director 2016-2017 Dulce Ranosa for her love, hard work, and dedication.
.
I was only able to attend Day 3 on May 1, labor day.
I missed Day 1 and Day 2 because I had to finish some work. I originally scheduled one day last week to read the manuscripts of the participants of the 90-Day Book Writing Challenge, but it took me 3 days to read and review their manuscript, and I’m not yet done. 😜
.
So proud of my Book Writing students! They write fast and well. I have to catch up reading their books.😍
.
.
What is that one thing you want to develop this year? Is it public speaking? Is it painting? Is it writing? Go for it!
.
.
I wish you success and happiness!
