SELF SURPRISE

Speech


Never had that self confidence in giving a speech, always feared that since English is a third language the audience will criticise or not approve  of me, but during a communication class I surprised myself, I made it happen. A job well done.
The self fulfilling prophecy i.e a person expectation of an outcome and subsequent  behavior makes the outcome more likely to occur because i told myself that if others do it i will make it too. I worked hard on my speech, revised it and rehearsed it before the presentation.
The results were amazing and I felt motivated to do more, The teacher was impressed and the students too and now i am destined for greater heights in college. I am very much interested in politics and you have to do a lot of talking and now i have the courage to speak to a big audience without any problem.

ABOUT

Made for hard working people

Finding the energy for work and family responsibilities is hard enough. Throw in a second job, go back to school, or simply have a sleepless night, and you’re bound to hit the wall. So what do you do? Run for the coffee? Grab a soda? But how long does that last before you need more? Try this instead – take one 5-hour ENERGY® shot. It’s quick, simple, and made to help hard working people.
What's in 5-hour ENERGY®?
The key ingredients in 5-hour ENERGY® are also available in every day foods – like broccoli, avocados, bananas and apples – or already in you. It contains zero sugar, four calories and as much caffeine as a cup of the leading premium coffee.

Why try 5-hour ENERGY®?5 Hour Energy Shot, Grape

 Hot Last Friday evening, after a week of gruelling work, I was tired, exhausted and sleepy and had four and a half hours to go. But a 5- hour energy drink my friend had,  brought more harm than relief.

 There was a problem, a big problem. Could the energy drink last for five hours and be as effective when shared?

There was only one bottle of the drink and i really wanted to share but my friend would not give in.

His argument was "If we share then it will last for only Two and  half hours instead of the usual five" and he would not enjoy the drink because it would mean taking  half and would be too little.

My suggestion was it would last for five hours but not 100% effective and as team mates we had to share the little there was and see it as glass half full and not half empty.
