In the past I've written about my Toastmasters goals. I am getting closer to reaching the biggest of the five I have for this year.
As a refresher, my goals for this Toastmasters year are:
1) earn my Advanced Communicator Gold;
2) earn my Distinguished Toastmaster;
3) earn an Old Competent Leader;
4) earn a new Competent Leader; and
5) earn an Advanced Leader Bronze.
It may be cheating a bit on first two goals, as the last remaining requirement I have for the DTM is to earn the ACG. As of this evening, I only have three speeches left to deliver to earn both the ACG and DTM. They are scheduled between my two clubs and I will finish them on September 26th. The titles, since I've been working on all three, are "Air Fair?" "Foul Balls" and "The Witch of Pungo."
For the other goals, I am making progress. The OCL needs only two educational modules and I'm prepared to talk about the Distinguished Club Plan and a meeting when we are running short. I'm bringing the new CL manual to each meeting, getting evaluations for whatever role I am serving in that meeting. For the ALB, I'll need a couple more educational modules, but that won't be difficult.
My real concern about my goals for this year, is that in reaching them this year, what goals will I need to set for next year. With a couple CTMs already in pocket, I guess I can start on the DTM trail again with the ACB, or even with the half finished CC manual I have.
Where would you start?
