I never considered myself a professional keynote speaker

I’ve been a “public speaker” for years now.  I even competed since I was 7 years old.  Latter in life I used my public speaking in social service and more recently in business.  I never considered myself a professional keynote speaker until now.

Yes, I’ve done many training classes and seminars but not with a speaker mindset. Now I have the speaker mindset!

Tomorrow I have a 1:15 hour presentation at a local college to help students prepare their carrier.   I am very excited!  I only wished when I was that age that an executive would teach me how to find a job, or start a business, or network, learn self promotion and more.

I whent to my first NSA – National Speakers Association meeting on Friday in the San Diego chapter.  It was a great meeting with outstanding people.  Many professional keynote speakers, trainers and seminar facilitators.  I had a great time and am looking forward to the next meeting.
