A very inspiring speech. I enjoyed it very much.....I have listened to a lot of speeches online and I have to say this is one of the best I have seen.

A very solid speech. After watching about 2 hours of Toastmasters speeches on line most of them have been egotistical or boring or just otherwise intolerable. Same goes for some of the evaluations. This was a very solid speech that I found interesting from the very beginning. Well done.

Great Job John! I look forward to seeing more of your speeches!

Great toastmaster speech. Upcoming speakers should take note of the great humor, excellent body language, all the vocal variety, especially on pitch and the pauses, etc.

Congratulations, John!
