Meeting on 28 July 2009

Dear Taman Indrahanians & Guests, A round of applause to our club for having our first new member of the term on the night of our 28 July meeting – Mellen Koh. I’m sure many of you would have welcomed on board by now. Here’s a re-cap of the highlights of the evening: 1. Thian Seng set the main meeting going with a very thought-provoking invocation. A key question we should all start thinking & doing is: “How would you write your own Obituary?” Because how you write it now is how you live now. (I have done mine – because I also learned this from a seminar I attended. So over to you.) 2. We had the Ice Breaker from Kevin. It was really an insight into what makes Kevin tick & click. He’s a very dynamic, young entrepreneur who should be able to teach us a thing or two about business development, whilst we share our Toastmasters journey with him. I think we should induct him into our fund-raising projects for the club. 3. Yuan was doing only her second speech & it t

The Flight of the Canadian Geese

VPE’s Message for 2009/2010 "The Flight of the Canadian Geese" More than 25 years ago I was travelling in Eastern Canada in autumn. Autumn in Canada is one of the most beautiful experiences in my life because all the maple leaves turn into different shades of golden colour. Another astounding experience I had was to see the Canadian geese migrating from the East to the West for the warmer weather. Now, fellow Toastmasters, for your information Canadian geese fly in a fascinating V-formation with a loud honking sound. Observe closely & you’ll see that after some time the lead goose at the tip of the V will fly to the back of the wing & another goose takes over the lead. This goes on continuously & consistently throughout their flight. At that time none of us could explain why all this was happening. Much later I found out why. When geese fly together as a group in V-formation, they have a better lifting power. When they fly on their own, they will feel drag & r

New beginning

Dear Taman Indrahanians, Friends & Guests, July 14 was the first meeting of our new term. It’s a shame if you missed it cos our new Prez Han gave his inaugural speech. For those who did attend, I hope you enjoyed the meeting & learning. It was a night of continuous lifelong learning, shared with us by the many veterans of Toastmasters: 1. It was actually the first time I’ve seen Dominic in action as TME of our club. He set a clear objective for the meeting, ie to end the meeting by 9.30 pm – we almost achieved it! We all learned to improve on our time management, & shall continue to do so. 2. Dr Devi gave a very thought provoking Invocation by challenging us to question whether we live our lives based on fear or Faith. 3. Thian Seng shared a very powerful speech with us – “I have a Dream” by Martin Luther King & his evaluator Fong Ming gave a very pertinent opinion on his delivery. I totally agreed with her evaluation. 4. LeAnn was her usual enthusiastic sel
