This is my latest speech competition speech from Toastmasters given last Saturday. The point of this speech for all of you is that it’s okay to recycle speeches. This was a speech I gave three years ago at the International semi-finals in California. I made adjustments to the opening and closing transition primarily. You don’t always have to come up with a new speech. You can take a story and message and “re-purpose” it often. The important part is that your message is giving value to the audience.

You competed? I thought you were keynoting. Regardless – how’d you do?
I competed in my district and keynoted for D9 in Spokane. I didn’t place at mine. Good speech but the quality of the winners were very good. I was happy with my presentation.
Oh. It all makes sense now….
