Hello Everyone:

I am struggling for a topic for my tenth speech, Speaking to Inspire.
Normally, I never have problems picking topics but this one I'm really
struggling with.

If anyone has any ideas or topics that you were successful with, would you
please respond?

Thanks,

Mike Donnelly

Mike Donnelly sought ideas for a tenth speech assignment.

The tenth speech is Inspire your audience.

Mike, think about a fairy tale - the princess and the frog
is one of my favorites. I refer to the tale and then ask
the question "How many frogs have you kissed today?" I go
on to explain that the world is full of people that have
hidden talents. All it requires is for us to give them a
chance. I ask how many kisses them - people who gave them a
chance - maybe the person who introduced them to
Toastmasters was their greatest prince.

At the end I ask them to commit to calling a prince to say
thanks, and to commit to kissing a frog.
