Conclusion

Wow! Toastmaster must have miraculous power to inspire everyone’s creative impetus. Like this meeting, our table topic master Charly brought us a new style for this session: Debate. It is really a good idea. He retained the challenge and impromptu element, and added team work in this session. If you want to win, you must stress cooperation. No doubt he made it more difficult, but it gave speakers a larger stage to perform and brought more fun to the audiences. Thanks Charly for your great design.

In the prepared speech session, Yong Mei told us a Formula to get happiness. “Happiness=Set Rang + Circumstance + Voluntary Activities” That is a simple way to explain to happiness. And this formula made the speech more vivid and impressive. Louis shared his story about Taiji. This speech not only let me know more about Taiji, but also feel it. Maybe that is why he could get the best speaker award.

Feeling the CCTM, enjoying the CCTM, sharing in CCTM. That is CCTM’s miracle, and also is our members’ miracle.
