Ask, Believe and Receive

"I am so happy and grateful that I have a beautiful family and beautiful career" - Jade
In the Toastmasters meeting last night, Jean asked us to write down what makes us feel happy and grateful about. A young and cheerful lady, at the age of 23 has unlocked the secret of happiness when she listened to the CD of The Secret, by Rhonda Bryne. She concluded her speech that the secret of happiness is ASK, BELIEVE, RECEIVE.

Her speech reminded me that how blessed I am with what I have now and that is true happiness. When we are grateful, we are at the state of happiness. I am counting and appreciate the blessing that I have. The recent flight tragedies that happened strike me with a realization that we do not know when we may face calamity. Therefore, count our blessing at every single moment of our life.
“Happiness is right here, right now, in this moment."

Message from the Division Governor

Good day to all of you.   T here was once myself and NJ Singam (past  convention   organizing  Chair) went to one of the local bank to close the  convention  bank account. When we went to the counter, we informed the officer about the matter and she handed us 2 forms for us to initial it. Then she obtained our Identification Card for verification. Just within 4 minutes, the officer handed us the remaining balance and told us that, the account was closed. It was a total contrast, if we compared with opening a bank account, where we had to fill few forms, go through few  verification  and approvals prior to opening an account. The entire process took almost 2.5hours compared to closure of account which lasted only for 5 minutes.     We often forget or never ponder on the  initiator  of the club and their sacrifice &  hard work  to charter the club and we just need a single sheet of paper to close a ...

Updates from TI

February 2013 Board Meeting The 2012-2013 Board of Directors will meet February 22-23, 2013, in Southern California. The Board held its first in-person meeting after the convention in August. Since that time, the Board's committees have met virtually, focusing on topics that support the 2010 Strategic Plan. These virtual meetings have reduced the amount of time Board members need to spend at in-person meetings . This year's February Board meeting schedule has been reduced to two days. Following the completion of the meeting, the results of the discussions will be shared in writing on the Toastmasters International website instead of at a public board briefing or through streaming video. The meeting will be shorter and less expensive, however, the reporting will still be provided in a timely manner. Members can visit the Toastmasters International website to see the results of the Board meeting on February 25 and the ILC officer nomination results on February 23....
