【Persistence】tm-the 266th meeting

script:

Hold your rhythm!

Persistence

1 Beginning:

Have you ever regretted not to have achievedyour personal goals due to slack[slæk]?

I’m a typical guy with the problem of slack.Learning English grammar, reciting new English words, practicing oral English,all this just hasn’t last long each time from the start.

Year after year, I am energetically tryingto carry out my thoughts, but each time it just wouldn’t last long and then vanished.

So, I told myself many times before thedating with Toastmasters: ”This time, once started, carry to the finish”

Because I failed so many times owing toslack, and I don’t want to be a lazy and cowardly guy, a son without any goodperformance can be proud to my parents, a father without anything can be shownoff by my children.

So, I persist in attending regularmeetings, sharing my ideas, losing my face at EF Phoenixes. Then, What aboutyou? that’s the question for today’s table topic in your heart.

Conclusion:

Thank everyone for contributing to thismeeting. You’ve really impressed me with your power.

Though we haven’t the chances to share ourideas about persistence in Table Topic section, but I still want to remindeveryone, including myself, to always keep these words in our mind “When youwant to give up or just have a slack, ask yourself to recall the initial vow[vaʊ]and continue going; then, when we get old,we can leave without so much regret” that’s what I have got from persistence. Whatabout you? thank you.

Feedback:

Bonnie Yang: Suggest to be 'bossy' when necessary since you are the controller on the stage. For example, Jill's answer should come from you when the guest first raised the question "they need more chances to practise"

自我反思：

1）说话逻辑不清晰，重点不突出，思考不够：逻辑尽量简单并说明白，总结时可用一两个关键词、短句概括重申重点

2）自己是主持人或掌握交流的主动权时，对方若无观点或没有完全回答问题：自己做好做一下引导

3）主持人控场可强势！

4）在更改涉及到别人的决定时，第一时间与当事人确认，确实来不及的另说！如果有可能的话，亲自确认！做决定不能草率！要有理有据！

例如：

*这次tm进行role call时，有些会员X在不确定可以与会时，硬塞给他们一些角色A，后期联系到其他确定可以与会的会员Y并想给他们角色A时，需要先跟X沟通好再做打算！

*Jackie会前被安排为quiz master. 会议开始时，Jill告诉我说Jackie需要做video master，自己就相当然的找了Fei来做quiz master。 结果quiz环节出现两个quiz master！
