"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
Lao-tzu, The
Way of Lao-tzu, Chinese philosopher (604 BC - 531 BC)
"The very best thing a new speaker can do is
to develop a ‘pick-me’ attitude. Every time someone asks 'who
can help with…' get your hand up fast and say 'PICK ME'.
It is a great way to learn the ropes; to understand what goes
on behind the scenes and a great way to get noticed for all the
right reasons. When you get noticed you get picked to MC, to thank
speakers, to speak! Fancy that!
The second best thing you can do IS GET
ON THE COMMITTEE! You will be on the real fast-track to learning
that way."
