It Takes Time to Be Great
Posted by Russ Ray on September 25, 2008
The great American writer and poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said,
“All the great speakers were bad speakers first.”
You didn’t become a leader overnight. You don’t become a great speaker the first few times you get on stage, either. Don’t be afraid to invest time and effort. It will pay off.
In other words, practice, practice, practice… relish speaking opportunities, join Toastmasters, teach a Sunday school class… do anything that gets you communicating in front of others.
