A Narrow topic?
Paul Evans in his DYNAMIC and tested book Instant Speaking Success recommends a narrow topic. Why? Because narrow persuasive speech topics enable pin-point accuracy and creates a memorable message. Imagine the applause ... when your audience has a clear "take home" message, one that is readily understood.
Paul's proven formula (I know because I use it!) ...
Narrow Topic + Head + Heart = Bull's Eye Speaking
Aim for the Bull's Eye with YOUR narrow persuasive speech topics.
Paul then expertly demonstrates how to recognise, find or create YOUR narrow persuasive speech topics. He continues to explore 'What do you want people to think'(Head) and to feel? (Heart).
This then identifies YOUR purpose, outcome or destination. You cannot commence a journey without a destination, otherwise you simply wander. All of Paul's ideas work , an excellent resource for success, and well worth a look.

The Power In Your Words
“No matter what people tell you, words and ideas can change the world.” Robin Williams
Words are tools.
They can change minds and build bridges.
They can inspire dreams.
"Words are free, it is how you use them that matters" Warren Holland
"Words of humour 'oils' the way,
reduces friction, reduces barriers,
and provides an energy in the room" Warren Holland
"Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny." Mahatma Gandhi
The Magic of Words
"Magic is believing in yourself. If you can do that, you can make anything happen." Joahann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Believe you can and you are halfway there." Theodore Roosevelt
