The music in your heart

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

Dear Toastmasters,
I would like to invite you for our next meeting, on which we will elaborate on our heart’s melodies.
Some time ago I’ve read that the music of the heart can be derived from electrocardiogram (ECG) data, actual digital recordings of the electrical signals of the human heart. These heart songs began as musical notes [...]

Leisure Time

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

Did you have a nice long weekend? I certainly did. I cannot believe it has already ended… Which is one of the reasons this post is sent so late.
Anyway, the long weekend has ended, and we have to get back to reality. So I’d like to invite you for the tomorrow meeting. Thanks to our [...]

Giving Advice

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

“Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but  wish
we didn’t.”
~Erica Jong, How to Save Your Own Life, 1977
Toastmasters:
What was the best advice you ever got?  The worst?  What advice
would you give your younger self?  Do you give other people advice?
Do they listen?
Giving advice is one way we share experiences and [...]

Dreams

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

My Dear Toastmasters and Guests,
It’s my pleasure to invite you for our tomorrow’s meeting.
As Napoleon Hill said: “A goal is a dream with a deadline.”
Thanks to Grzegorz, our Table Topic Master, we will have an opportunity to talk about our very important goals, or - if they are not precised yet - just dreams. Some [...]

If I were a rich man…

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

My fellow Toastmasters,

Back to the Future…or Past

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

My fellow future leaders of the world:
What would you do if you could travel through time?  Would you go back to give your past self some advice?  Would you play a dirty trick on your arch-nemesis?  Would you have a broader view, and try to improve the conditions of mankind, perhaps by warning the residents [...]

Video Games

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

My Dear Toastmasters,
To be honest, I’m quite surprised that I was waiting such a long time for this topic. It should have been announced much earlier, taking into account that we have so many geeks, I mean “IT guys” in our club.
According to Radek, our Table Topic Master, the Winter is going to be quite [...]

Motivation

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Toastmasters,
I invite you all to our next meeting. Frankly speaking, I can’t wait this meeting to begin. Two reasons for  that:
Reason nr 1 - 2 speeches given by experienced speakers: first will be given by Maciek Ż. This is his tenth project - Inspire Your Audience - the last and longer (10 [...]
