Posted in Quotes to Live By, Toastmasters, Self Help, My Life at 10:44 pm by Freeman Wicklund

This speech won my Toastmasters club’s inspirational speech contest. Yay! :D The purpose of my talk is to show you how to use the wisdom of the sages to cultivate your spiritual values and improve your life.

After giving an earlier version of this speech to the Dupont Circle of Speakers, I overhauled it based on their helpful suggestions. Thanks Dupont Circle of Speakers!

This version was given on February 27 at Capital 1 Toastmasters–my home group. Because I won the club competition, I will now compete at the area level on Wednesday, March 21. Wish me luck! ;-)
