Received several mitzvahs.
This afternoon a friend told me that yesterday on Easter she overheard a mom she knows talking about my blog and mitzvah project. My friend interjected and told them she knew me. Wow, that totally made my day!
Tonight, I attended a speakers association meeting. At the end of the meeting, I asked a question and the speaker invited me to come up to the front of the room so she could coach me. Of course, I was nervous but what an amazing opportunity! When I returned to my seat the gentleman in front of me handed me his card and told me he had taped the whole coaching session (which was an introduction to a speech I am giving next week that was absolutely brilliant). Another member handed me her written transcription as well. I was so grateful to the speaker for her fabulous spontaneous introduction which was better than anything I can currently craft and the folks who recorded her words for me!
Linda, your were amazing how you handled the pressure of that special invitation from such an expert in the field. I thought you did a great job and you were genuine and honest in your approach.
There is no facade with you – you’re the real deal! I look forward to tracking you as you help so many people!
I want to echo what Kevin said. You were obviously not intending to be called up by the speaker.
I especially loved how you repeated her words but changed the length of time from 1 hour to 15 minutes! 🙂
John.
