Hi, I'm just back from school after some motivational talks like what other schools did to their students.
Just a short thoughts of myself about movtivational talks. I am always movtivated by this talks for only a period, and this talks will go out of my mind after sometimes and sooner or later I'll forget everything. And also I always felt very movtivated after talks and talks, You know what, this talks is always the same. Always about our thinking mind-set, be more positive thinking, have the right attitude towards life and etc. For me, I'm always prepare for all this talks, whether what they are going to say or what is the main thing they want to tell us. But by listening with no action, I find it no use. Or even this talks only go into our head for a period of time and goes out.
BUT, for today talks, Is about " Overcoming Fear and Procrastination ". I'm prepared myself for some talks and questioning. But I'm wrong. He is fantastic. His name is Dion Jordan. Yes of course before the talks, there are some introduction about him and people giving comment about him being a very good speaker or even a great motivational speaker. You know what I thought at first ? Of course no one will show the bad things about him during the introduction, if not what's for inviting him to be the speaker of the day. LOL! I thought all speaker always speak the same. BUT I am wrong. He is totally a wonderful , Fantastic and great and etc speaker. He tell the real fear that all of us did face and whatever he say I find it so true. I'm seriously got motivated by him. He asked my whole class 5 question. Is a test on us. here goes the short games which he tested on us.
Rule :
1) If you think that is a yes Standing up, if is a no Remain sitted.
2) Do not stop your friend from Standing up.
Here goes the question -
1) how many of you know how to sing ?
.......................
Response from my class, 1 person stooded up.
2) How many of you know how to dance ?
........................
" " " " " 2 Person stooded up.
3) How many of you know how to draw ?
.........................
" " " " " 5-6 person stooded up.
4) How many of you think that you're good-looking ?
..........................
" " " " " 2 of them stooded up.
5) How many of you think that you're smarter then the person beside you ?
.........................
" " " " Almost the whole class stooded up. ( LOL!)
Test yourself too. It's really true (:
Guess what he told us after this "Games" or can I say test. He told us that he have been motivating people who are at the age of 5years old to the age of 95 years old. He told us that the 5years old kid response. They all stooded up for every questions. He say this -
" I didn't ask you guys whether you MUST be the best singer or the best dancer or an artist or even the most handsome or prettiest person of all. I'm just asking you guys whether you can draw a simple things, or just shake your hands/legs, or sing a simple song like you guys always follow the music and sing and when you off it, YES YOU'RE SINGING. And so why all of you are not standing up. Who have stopped you from standing. Is YOU YOURSELF. Not the person beside you or anyone esle. Is you who are the one who is lack of confidence and you're the one who told yourself that you can't so you didn't stood up."
After what he have say. I was like OMG ? Ya, so true. He is really a good speaker which would really motivate people. He don't put things so silly like saying that saying us always can't do this at this or can't do that at that and actually you can. and Just put this word positive in your mind and make your future bright or something. He is really good. FOR WHAT I CAN SAY IN CONCLUSION - HE IS GREAT ! And I'll never forget this question. By writting inside this blog, will let me remember this talks ! Cause I don't want to forget.
And by the way, he speak to us using some sort of computer webcam thinggy and not standing in front of us. He was speaker at USA at his home lols and its 11.30pm over there. Hahas (: And he say this, I stay awake because of you guys (: HAHA!
