All of the speakers did a wonderful job with their speeches. The class as a whole did great with participation. My brothers had a good time engaging in Toastmasters. We the Soldiers of Spring \u201818 look forward to all the future events in Toastmasters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Devante D.

You can tell by the atmosphere in the pod that everyone is focused. We are studying and quizzing one another to make sure we succeed as a whole. If one of our brothers falls behind on information for the test, we all come together to help him understand the class material a little better.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Farron M.

Our objective was to practice our elevator pitches and share feedback as a class, which was inspiring, educational and fun. Bert S.\u2019s lecture focused on topics like being personal, truthful, knowing your customers and being specific so everyone understands your idea. It was inspiring how my classmates expressed positive feedback along with supportive, personal experiences that helped others improve their own pitches. It was a true demonstration of servant-leader mentality with \u201c\u2026the overriding responsibilities to be of service to others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lauro S.

After we had the chance to express our questions and concerns, we watched a few clips about elevator pitches to help us with our own presentations, which we will present next weekend. Harvey M. came in and talked to us about one of our 10 Driving Values: Fresh Start Outlook. We were released for chow to go eat, then we returned to the PEP classroom to listen to our second guest speaker Kristie W. She spoke on Servant-Leader Mentality (another one of our 10 Driving Values). Overall, it was a very productive day for the Soldiers of Spring \u201818 class.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mark S.

All of us were looking forward to getting the test done and out of the way, but the PEP instructors ended up not calling us to class. However, it felt good to have a day off to take care of our other assignments. This allowed us to add an extra day to our weekend. Monday it\u2019s back to business though. Focus, focus, focus!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Albert B.

None of us is the same by any means. Although we may have similar characteristics and attributes, we\u2019re all peculiar in our own way.<\/p>\n<p>God also gave each of us specific spiritual gifts that are intricately designed to bring Him glory and serve His purpose. Some of us are talented speakers; some are talented teachers; some of us are talented athletes; and still others are talented preachers. Whatever our talents may be, it is important that we understand not only what our talents are and where they came from, but also who gave them to us in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>It only takes one person to make a difference in this world.
