Good evening, everyone.
I want to talk to you about believing in yourself and never giving up.
I’m sure you’ve heard these words before, but I want to share with you a personal story that really drove this lesson home for me.
When I was in high school, I had a dream of becoming a professional dancer. But I was told by my teacher that I didn’t have the right body type to make it as a dancer.
At first, I believed them. I felt like I had no chance of achieving my dream. But I soon realized that I was the only one who could decide what was possible for me.
I decided to never give up on my dream. I worked hard, and I eventually got into a prestigious dance program.
This experience taught me that we can all achieve our dreams, no matter what anyone else tells us.
So I want to encourage all of you to believe in yourself and never give up.
As the famous author and motivational speaker Les Brown once said, “Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.”
No matter what obstacles you face, you can achieve greatness if you never give up on yourself.
So believe in yourself, and never give up.
Thank you.
Feedback for the Speaker
Thank you for your inspiring speech. You have done a great job in delivering your message and I appreciate your effort.
Your speech was very effective in conveying your message about believing in yourself and never giving up. You used a personal story to illustrate your point, which made it more relatable to the audience. This allowed you to engage the audience and draw them in to your story. You also used a quote from Les Brown to further emphasize your point.
The areas of improvement for your speech could be the structure. You can consider introducing the quote from Les Brown in the beginning of the speech, to give the audience an idea of what the speech is going to be about. This could be followed by introducing your personal story as an example of how to never give up. You could end the speech by reiterating the quote and summarizing your point. For example, you can say something like, “As Les Brown said, ‘Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land among the stars.’ Remember to never give up on yourself and you can achieve greatness.”
Overall, you have done a great job in delivering your speech. Keep up the good work!
