Hello Dear Friends,
We all know that one of the greatest attributes of an effective public speaker is passion. Unless you are passionate about your subject, how can you stir up excitement in your listeners? Your desire is always to make them feel, by the end of your speech, what you felt at the beginning of that speech. There must be communication and transmission of purpose.
But is there anything like passion gone overboard? Can passion be so much that it derails the substance of a speech?
I want you to check out this 5-minute video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPIvwu-573Y&list=PLlhhbyPZp-bS-i2jlZj8msTHEqWJed1tr
Let me know what you think.
Also, aside from the passion, what else do you think about it?

The Power of Practice
In the school of mastery, practice is indispensable.
According to the Oxford Dictionary, practice is:
It is good to know that you believe you know what you know, BUT the ONLY way to know you know it is through demonstration.
Reading all the books you can lay your hands on about swimming doesnβt make you float in waterπββοΈ; practice does.
Reading about driving doesnβt make you a driverπ; practice does. And please, letβs not even talk about flying a planeβοΈπ©!
So, you have learnt a lot about public speaking, read books, and watched professional speakers, BUT you have not practiced???π³π―

Success Wishes to Students Writing Exams
Hello, my dearest students,
Here are my warmest wishes for your ongoing examination. May you enjoy the help of God. May wisdom profit you. And may your result surpass your expectations.
Now, don't forget that an examination is simply a communication of value. Hence, all the rules of effective communication apply:
1. You can't give something out of Nothing. From the abundance of the heart, through studying, you write. π
2. Understand your audience: write for your lecturer and not for yourself. Understand the expectations of your Examiner and write from that perspective. π
3. Mind your language: write with clarity. The hallmark of learning is the full grasp of concepts and issues. Use technical terms in your field that show you are a professional. You are not writing for a layman. But don't overdo it. π
4. Begin with the most important points. When you make sense early, your Examiners will be happy to read the rest. Why do you need to keep them in suspense by keeping the best till last? π€·πΌββοΈ
5. Mind your opening and closing. Even if it is a mathematical equation, a simple statement introducing it can make a difference. π―
6. Pay attention to details. Excellence is seen in details. π₯Έ
7. Don't rush too much. Manage your time appropriatelyβ³. There is no prize for the 1st person to complete the exam, only the person who passes. π₯
8. Have a positive attitude. Rejoice always. ππ»
9. Keep that smile on, it looks good on you. π
I am waiting right here to celebrate your testimony.

SPEAKING WITH PURPOSE
Hello Dear Friends,
I trust you are doing great today.
This has been on my mind for a couple of days, and I thought to share it with you.
As a speaker, your mouth is the worldβs window to your heart. Whenever you speak, people catch a glimpse of your thoughts. πͺ
Anytime you open your mouth, people never see you the same way anymore. π₯Έ When you speak, one of three things may happen:
1. They give you a double-take because they didnβt expect that level of insight π―
2. They are shocked because they expected more π
3. It reinforces what they have always known about (good or bad)π
If you say a word, they believe you have a thousand more unspoken. That is why if wisdom is heard from you, they believe there is more and vice versa.
If you agree, reply with: I will speak with purpose!
