Have you ever had one of those moments when you're in the middle of a conversation and suddenly get choked up? Or, as you're talking, you realize that everyone in the room really is listening to you (including the CEO), so you better make sense ... and then ... oh, wait ... what was I saying again? Or, you're at a networking event and become unable to compile a logical sentence after a whole 2 hours of small talk.
Hopefully, I'm not the only one who has been through this. Regardless, I hope to reduce the amount of times that this happens. So, that's why I'm going to test out a Toastmasters club to brush up on my public speaking skills. I'm going to try out the Toastmasters' Wisconsin Club next Thursday ... fingers crossed! Not sure what to expect, but I'll let you know.
WOD: discursive - passing aimlessly from one subject to another; digressive; rambling.
