Good work last night!

In preparation for next week's class (September 28) please:

Have three or more conversations with total strangers.  These conversations should last at least a minute or two.

Be ready to tell, in ONE MINUTE, no more, a story of one of the conversations you had.  Make it interesting, funny, or otherwise good.  Make sure your story lasts no longer than one minute!  (As a result, at least one of your conversations with a stranger needs to be interesting enough to make a good story!)

Bring in a revised, polished, good introduction (beginning of a speech).  Remember, make sure the introduction gets your audience's attention!   Use a story, a proverb, a quotation, a question, something to make us interested to hear more!

Reread the conclusions from the "Few Good Speeches" handout from last week (Macarthur, Mark Twain, etc.).  Be ready to identify QUICKLY some of the strategies that work to make the conclusions successful.  We'll talk about some of the vocabulary to use!

If Dan S. and Sean are in your coaching group: call or text them and find out why they were missing last week--get them caught up!
