Becoming an inspirational speaker is not easy! I love listening to others inspire audiences with their message, and I love doing it too. As somewhat of a beginner, writing out and establishing a name for myself with a signature talk and story takes time to develop. I will admit that I am really enjoying the process, even all the practice and repetition. It does get frustrating sometimes after changing things on your talk a million times to get it to say and sound the way you want it to. Yes in the end it is rewarding and worth it, but it just takes a lot longer since as I said I’m somewhat of a beginner and new to the process! Patience is not easy but something which is learned.

What are you working on, learning in your life? Life is just a big learning experience and we are all beginners in one way or another. Challenge yourself, try something new. Never tell yourself you can’t do something. Don’t come up with excuses; discover the challenge and the solution so you can take your life and dreams to the next level. All of us will be frustrated at one time or another, become excited at those frustrations as you grow and become a better and more accomplished person!!!
