The First Speech

First of all, I'm honored to be with you today at toast master from one of the famous speech group in the world. Truth be told I never experienced to learn English more systematically and in depth. it was only skin-deep. It's the first time to deliver a speech for an audience.

today i want to tell you one essay from my life. that's it. no big deal. just one essay. my speech topic is that Is success dictated by the academic record?

This words, Grade is not only chance in your life is very famous. it is true. but how about the success?

Many people don't want to believe that the Happiness Does Not Come from getting good Grades. i think there are more people who enter the poorly performing school than the good school. the success may depend on getting the good grade but the happiness doesn't depend it. Some days ago, I read about study on forbs magazine. It looked at 400 rich people from the united states, 50 of them were graduated from harvard university and 270 of them are self made men and 80 of them received a legacy. the study shows that the self made men are the richers than others.

There is no exception in korea. most of the people who works in the government or famous companies like samsung or LG are a graduate of famous University. of course. not everybody who graduated from the famous university get a job.

I heard on tv show that the people who graduated from seoul university faces unemployment. I think that’s very, very unfortunate. Actually the unknown school's student has many different perspectives about the seoul university student. Generally, we believe that they have more ability than us and that most companies want to employ the seoul university's student. The news have rich implications which the people who graduated from seoul university are smarter than other school 's student and that they become rich. however some of them live in poverty and troubled with unemployment.

Moreover, there are some people who did poorly in school have succeeded in life. it means that the person who studied well and succeeded in life can't appear on television shows because it is not great story. the reason why the people who did poorly in school appear on tv shows is that it is hard to success.

In my case, i'm not a famous university student and I think I have a small chance to achieve success. I wonder what is the best way to achieve success in my life.

I think that It's probably hard to answer the question and it is easy to find what the success is at first. I think that the true successful life is to feel worth from my effort and to feel happy.

Again, I believe that the true successful life means that finding the value to give my life and to pursuit it with all I have got and leaving no regrets.
