Today, I visited X’s speaking club. I was curious to see him leading a meeting and I wanted to compare it with what’s going on at my clubs. As far as I was able to observe, he is too much obsessed with pleasing the audience. We talked today about the future and then played the game where participants had to guess famous people by asking “yes or no questions”. We were playing the game for half of the time. I’ve noticed that X’s level of confidence was lower than that he has at my clubs. The responsibility of being a leader makes him quite nervous, though he does a relatively good job masking his nervousness under overconfidence. At the beginning, the sense of frustration produced by his awkward short talk with a new coming girl spread all over the place. However, since he began working on this club only a few months ago, it’s all right. I think he needs just a little more time to gain confidence, etc. Form my part, I would say that today I’ve learned how not to handle the meetings and what things to avoid, lest I should fall into the abyss of triviality.
I must think about making the best possible clubs; and where I’m now is just the beginning.
