Prepared Speech Sessions
#1 Speaker TM. Z.J.: "The Flow" (CC#4)
In "Flow" state, people become productive, enjoyable, and creatives. We can grow ourselves in the fastest pace in "Flow" state, which gives us greatest joy.
So what is "Flow"? We cannot see the "Flow", but explain by comparison of non-Flow state. In non-Flow state, there are various internal conflict of energy inside our body, but once you become "Flow" state, the smooth energy circulation was realized, which resulted in happy state.
How can we be in "Flow" state? One tip is to minimize information input.
#2 Speaker TM R.S..: "English and me"(CC#5)
TM. R.S. visited Germany with her husband. In the hotel, she met a trouble. One of a hotel staff tried to help, but she missed it due to an English grammatical mistake.
So far, she has no trouble related to English skills as there are no opportunities to use, but thanks to this experience, she got strong motivation to learn Englsh.
#3 Speaker TM Y.S.: "Giver's gain"(CC#10)
TM. Y.S.'s mother likes to present others to please them, and TM. Y.S. also hopes to be like that.
One day, two Australian visited Japan, so she decided to give a tour to them. She brought them to famous places as well as her house. They become happy, and sent thank-you present.
In other day, TM. Y.S. met one lady who looked sad, so she cheered her up, then she became fine, and smiling to TM. Y.S..
Like this, by giving something to someone, we got something in return such as smile, and happiness.
#4 Speaker TM Y.C.: "Evolution for something"
After Darwin wrote a book, everyone knows "evolution". Everything moves forward day by day, year by year.
There are two ways of evolutions. The first one is evolution to adapt to the environment. As for human, physical training is an example. The second one is to gradual change, such as study.
We should aim for evolution to change ourselves.
