One way to over-come fear of publicspeaking is to still

be afraid and speak in anyways. Asillogical as this may seem, it isprobably the most reliable way togain confidence in speaking. Beafraid, be nervous, be hesitant, butdo it anyways. Just Go For It!

I think the best solution is to con-front this fear and to join Toastmas-ters International. The nice thing

about Toastmasters is that the or-ganization is designed to make it as

easy as possible to learn public speaking.You can attend a few meetings as a guestto see what it is like without any sort ofpressure. Just show up and watch.

Everyone understands what it is like tobe new at public speaking and they donot expect you to be good. It is notmuch pressure with lots ofencouragement.

Toastmasters actually have two tracks forbuilding skills. One is the communicationtrack, which involves improving your

speaking skill and the leadership track,which helps you build leadership skills.

Members are free to focus on onetrack or the other or both.

I would love to invite you to ournext Voice Toastmasters Club

meeting.

I look forward to seeing you at ourn e x t m e e t i n g .

my appreciation to the Conference Chairman andhis Committees for their enormous efforts tomake the Division Conference a success. JOB

WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But his son Damu hate to be a barber, he com-

pleted his education and got a job as teacher

with enough salary. Suresh, their neighbor

seeing Damus father efforts, started a barber

shop and called it beauty parlor. Now he is

very rich with around 15 shops in various

places in India.

We could be successful of whatever in our

hands, provided we do it properly to achieve

way with your efforts.

My friend, Damus father was a

barber, he was illiterate, but he is not

short of wisdom and knowledge.

Old men in their village used to

come at his barber shop early morn-

ing reading news papers and discuss

the day to day issues of the world. So

if you ever ask him, he can tell you

whats happening in the world.

our goals, result will manifest by itself.Our VOICE Toastmaster Club will be a plat-

form for all of the above or more. If we can

develop self-confidence by knowing our

selves and putting to work what we learn in

Toastmasters using both out hands together,

success and more successes are just a

speech away, just think Toastmaster and go

forward without looking back.

measure of success in leadership.I learned a lot and gained a remarkable experience during thetour of my duty as Area-24 Governor. The experience of charter-ing new club, coaching and assist inactive club, conducting club

demonstration meetings, and carrying out club visits were allworth remembering. It is with heavy heart to leave the post, butwith the trust and confidence to my successor CC-JoesilVillanueva, I know he can continue my legacy. With his commit-ment and dedication, surely my expectation on him to continuewhat I have started in Area-24 will go on. And perhaps he willsucceed in accomplishing more and influence all Area-24 ClubOfficers to attain more goals in their respective Clubs. I am

sharing to all of you the honor of obtaining the

SELECT DISTINGUISHED AREA this year because, with-out all your cooperation and hard work this honor will not comeinto reality. Remember ..SEEING MUCH..!! SUFFERINGMUCH!!AND WORKING MUCH!! simply means you

have fearlessly crossed the acid tests of a true servant..

L E A D E R

Have you heard the BIG BANGS, the FIREWORKS and the HURRAYS for our

fellow Toastmasters? Yes, others not only heard them LOUD but felt them DEEP as well.

They are the most deserving Officers of the Clubs, Areas, Divisions and District who

brought honor to their respective group. After finishing their term, it is time to give them

recognition for a job well done.

My congratulations to fellow officers of VOICE club and I hope that during our

term, we did not only serve the club but we did learn as well from the position which we

held. Remember that to serve as an officer of a Toastmasters Club is a privilege.

Another set of energetic and enthusiastic officers is on the driver seat and ready to

drive us to our goal destination for the term 2008-2009. For me, it is an honor and a privi-

lege to serve another term in another position. To my fellow officers, let us help one another

and together let us drive the wheels of our club, making sure that we will survive the rough

road towards our goal this term.

If we believe that we are here in Toastmasters to learn and to be effective communi-

cators, then there is no doubt that we will become effective leaders too. It is like we are

shooting two birds in one stone. So lets go hand in hand, push those barriers out of our

roads and let the engine starts. We will not stop until we get there, we will not stop until wereach our GOAL to become President Distinguish Award, the highest award of the

Toastmasters International.

I think I will not use the word O F F I C E R in our club. Since, I wanted these indi-

viduals to be always visible and ready to accept responsibilities and challenges for the bet-

terment of our club. And since, these are individuals who are always there to assist our club

and its members. Then, lets call them, L E A D E R. Id like to call them LEADER for I

want to see our club officers to:

L - ead us

E - levate us

A - ccept responsibilities and challengesD - irect us

E - nergize us, and lastly

R - ule to bring the club to its pedestal.

Fellow toastmasters, members and Officers of VOICE Club let me leave you this

question. What does a LEADER mean to you?
