What can I talk about?

I was asked by fellow group member about finding topics for speeches. 
I would like to share the answer I gave her in the hopes that it might be helpful to others. 

~~ "Sit down with pencil and paper and start with pre-school. Write down everything you can remember (a toy you played with, a teacher who said something you never forgot, a place you visited)... 
do this for all your early school years. You will remember things you have not thought about in a loooong time! 

Some of them will be relevant to who you are today and will make interesting stories as to what has made you the person you have become. If you can pull a piece of advice from these stories for your listeners to use, too, that would be great!" 

~~ Now find a pencil and paper, and start writing!
By David Levy from Toastmasters International Group on Facebook

Stories make the best speeches for beginners and experienced speakers. Try this method for preparing your speeches. Base it on a story from your own experience, preferably a recent experience.

The speech will be in three parts:

1. Start with a simple statement of the point, meaning or significance of your speech.

2. Tell a story which illustrates the statement, point, meaning etc

3. End by restating the point or meaning.

In your preparation, there are two important parts.

First, select the incident or event.
Second, work out the significance for it. The second part, deciding on the point or the significance, is what makes it a speech in terms of public speaking. It will probably be the hardest part of your preparation.

Use the methods employed by good storytellers.
Set the scene – describe places, facial expressions and physical movements.
Use pauses to heighten the interest, particularly before the conclusion, the final part of the story. Include conversation and report direct speech – the actual words spoken.

Look around at the audience – make them feel you are telling it to them. Relax and speak at a steady pace.

Visit a Toastmasters meeting!  Toastmasters clubs meet in the morning, during lunchtime or in the evening in communities and corporations all over the world.

The Rainbow Fairies

from Lizzie Hadley

Two little clouds one summer's day
Went flying through the sky.
They went so fast they bumped their heads,
And both began to cry.

Old Father Sun looked out and said,
"Oh, never mind my dears,
I'll send my little fairy folk
To dry your falling tears."

One fairy came in violet,
And one in indigo,
In blue, green, yellow, orange, red,--
They made a pretty row.

They wiped the cloud tears all away,
And then, from out the sky,
Upon a line the sunbeams made
They hung their gowns to dry.

Lizzie M. Hadley
