Chapter 4 Never forget your goal

I have always believed that the pleasure you get from public speaking is the number one reason for successful speaking, and like the aforementioned Mr. Gantt story, I believe that this factor is far more important than any other.He really took our guidance, followed our advice, and did our homework without slacking.However, I believe he was able to do it because he wanted to do it himself, and he did it because he envisioned himself as a successful speaker.He puts himself into the image of the future and then works to make it happen.This is the action you have to actually give. Going all out, being confident, and being able to speak like a lotus flower are extremely important to you.Think about the importance of this ability to your friendship and social life; think about how it greatly enhances your ability to serve others and society; think about the impact this ability has on your career... Jane In short, it will pave the way for your future leadership and personal success.

"Speech Quarterly" published an article by Mr. Erin, President of UNESCO, entitled "The Relationship between Speech and Leadership in Career"."In the history of business," he said, "many people have been honored for their excellence from the pulpit. Many years ago, the executive of a small branch in Kansas, after giving a fantastic speech , has become our vice president today, responsible for business development.” The ability to calmly speak in public will make your future bright.There is a graduate student, Henry Burlestone, who is the president of the American Seaver Company.He said with deep emotion: "Conversing effectively with others and winning their cooperation is an ability that those who climb the ladder should strive to cultivate."

Think how satisfying and refreshing it is when you rise up confidently to share your thoughts and feelings with your audience!I have traveled the world several times, but few things can replace the joy and joy of conquering an audience with the power of words.On that occasion, you will have a great sense of power.A graduate student said: "Two minutes before I started speaking, I would rather be whipped than not be able to speak; but two minutes before the end of the speech, I would rather be shot than stop." Now please start to imagine yourself facing many audiences, imagine yourself walking forward with full confidence, listen to the silence of the audience after your speech; feel the audience's rapt attention when you speak impassionedly ; Feel the warmth of the warm applause when you leave the podium; listen to some of the audience's great appreciation for you after the party...

William James, a famous professor of psychology at Harvard University, once wrote four sentences.These four sentences are likely to have a profound impact on your life.These four sentences are the opening formula for Alibaba to bravely explore the treasure hole: If you focus enough on a goal, you will naturally achieve it. If you wish to do well, you will do well. If you expect to be rich, you will be rich. If you want to be learned, you will be learned. Only then will you truly look forward to these things and look forward to them without distractions, instead of spending a lot of energy on irrelevant trivial matters.

Regardless of any subject, as long as you study it with enthusiasm, you will be able to learn it well. Therefore, one of the principles of learning to speak is: imagine yourself successfully doing what you are currently afraid of doing, and think wholeheartedly about the benefits of being able to speak in public and be accepted by others.Remember the words of William James: "If you care enough about an outcome, you will achieve it."
