Oh Yes. Tribute to Toastmasters

Have you ever performed on stage or given a speech?

This question raised beautiful emotions.

I was a long-term member of Toastmasters International. It is a nonprofit educational organization headquartered in the USA. The organization has approximately 280,000 members. It teaches public speaking and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs. During my membership, I made many public appearances and performed as many speeches. Beautiful feeling that makes you structure your mind, learning to be truthful and freely express yourself.

In our club meetings, there is always a time for so-called table topics. During this time, some attendees are called to give brief two-minute answers to random questions.

I remember replying about whom you would like to meet from the past. Tell us about the first kiss. Why is the sky blue? Etc… Many times, we were crying from the laugh.

Table topics are something so similar to daily prompt questions of WordPress.

However, there, at the Toastmasters, we talk in public while here we all write.

Let me share one idea that we might do here at WordPress.

Once a month, WordPress will create ten random groups of 10 people. These groups can organize zoom meetings. They can talk about anything related to the WordPress idea.

Everyone would have 2 minutes to express self, and after 20 minutes, the group would vote and explain the vote. The winner will be announced, and maybe one picture of a small trophy would be awarded to decorate the profile.

To inspire everyone who wants to speak but faces some barriers, here is a video. It features the winner of one of the Toastmasters competitions.

It is titled “I SEE SOMETHING IN YOU, BUT I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT IS”
