Current Events Today - Paid Speaking Engagements Tomorrow

By Lucia Baker


Current events are (among other things) the makings of relevant speeches. Some events end with the headlines. Depending on the lives involved, lives affected and someone's willingness to share their experience with others, speaking and writing careers are born.

Take today..... Today in Los Angeles, there begins, a colossal undertaking of de-constructing/repairing a bridge over the very major 405 freeway shutting down a 10-mile segment of the freeway that will affect at least 5 additional freeways and millions travelling in cars. The PR campaign makes an effort to caution people to shop locally and stay off the freeways and "get to know your community." Imagine the personal stories that will develop by the time it re-opens on Monday morning. Mark my words...someone with a significant story to tell will emerge from this. The Santa Monica, UCLA Medical Center has three helicopter companies on standby to transport patients and human organs in the event of emergency operations requiring extra medical supplies and personnel. True to LA's penchant for drama, it's already being called,"Carmageddon."

Discuss the events with your friends and family: It is easy to gather information by discussing with people around us. Also, this is a much simpler method to help you remember the events.

Out of that event, he wrote his bestselling book, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, and that turned into the movie just released, 127 Hours. The Navajo Code Talkers (WWII) received no recognition until the project was declassified in 1968 and although recognition came to them through President Clinton and the movie, Windtalkers, I don't know if there are descendents who are speaking about that now, but there should be!

Read the newspaper: Reading the newspaper, will not only give you information about the various events, but also help you in expanding your knowledge of words. Updating your vocabulary always helps.

Seek help from people: From assignments to be completed on time to homework and exams to be attended to, students find it difficult to allocate time to know the latest events. You can therefore ask your parents/friends to help you keep up-to-date of the events.

Today in Dallas, Texas, it is the second day of the impressive 4-day eWomenNetwork's International Conference & Business Expo featuring 36 (mostly women) speakers that are deserving of such a large audience. If you're not there now, make plans to attend next year. As an emerging speaker, this is a stage you'll want to be on in the future.
