Toastmasters Boosted My Self-esteem

I can not tell you how terrified I was about public speaking. The thought of standing up and speaking in front of people terrified me, but I did it. I remember giving my first speech and shaking in my shoes. My eyes were focused on the wall straight ahead. I did not make eye contact with anyone.

Now after being in Toastmasters for almost 3 years I love getting up and speaking. As I had more and more speeches under my belt, I found to my surprise I was believing in myself. My self-esteem soared. I started using vocal variety and actually doing a little acting out.

This is what Toastmasters did for me. With each speech I was actually growing as a person and a speaker. I can not tell you everything Toastmasters did for me. I just know I do not want to leave Toastmasters.
