Stay On Track

Dear Esteemed Members,

Happy New Year 2020! We are mid-way through the Toastmasters term 2019-2020. 7 months have quickly past us, with 5 more months to secure our 2019-2020 achievements. How have you performed so far? Have your clubs and members achieved their goals? Have your areas and divisions achieved their goals too? I am sure most of you if not all, are on track or have plans to close the term strong. Yes, me too. I am extremely excited to see the results of the programs/initiatives that we started at the beginning of the term. When that happens, we will achieve our target – as a Smedley Distinguished District!

I would like to remind you to review your journey in Toastmasters and understand your current status. If you have already achieved your goals for the term – my sincere congratulations to you! I hope you can continue to support your club members, the areas, the divisions and even the district in achieving their goals too. If you are thriving to achieve your goals for the term – no worry, you are not alone; hold dear to your goals, visualise the benefits that you will get after you achieve your goals, share them with your friends. Let’s walk alongside each other, motivate and cheer one another to the finishing line. Stay on track and we will meet and celebrate our successes at the Annual Conference 2020 on 5-7 June.

Dr. Yvonne Leong, DTM
District 102 Director
