“inside out and public speaking.

Good evening my Toastmaster of the evening, fellow toastmaster and guests,

Anyone has watched the latest Pixar movie “Inside out”?

Before the movie, have you ever imagined what’s happened in your head? How our emotion works? How your emotion correlates with our BEHAVIOR?

This film did his job so well that even a primary school kid can explain how the emotion works in their mind. My friend’s kid will tell him that Joy is giggling in headquarter! Or her Anger is exploding! The sweetest one will be that thank you so much it must be one of my core memories. SO sweet ha?

Not only kid can learn a lot, I also learn a lot about public speaking from “Inside out” too.

First, emotion is mixed actually, they seldom works alone. Riley’s emotion fought against each other to control the panel. After Joy and Sadness had returned the core memories, the emotions worked hand in hand to support Riley in the end. In fact, it is very true. Even though we always state excited, sad or angry on Facebook or on whatsapp with emoji, do we just have the only one emotion at that moment? Or the emotion fought against each other?

Taking me as example, delivering speech in front of so many people, my Fear actually keeps worrying whether the audience feel any oddies on me. But, at the same time, my Joy is so excited that so many people is paying attention on what things I am sharing with. So what should I do to keep away from my stage fright? I cannot choose which emotion is working in my mind, but I can focus on which emotion I have right now. So, I should keep smile and keep the connection between us, or the Stage Fright will take control of me.
