Introduction
I.
II. Good evening, my name is Eric Campbell. The bag that I brought today is important to me because my dad got it for me when we started hunting together. I was around 14 and I have used it many times out in the woods, and while traveling.
Body
I. My past item is a cell phone, it represents my past career. I have around 6 years sales experience with cell phones. When I first got into selling cell phones my career goal was to work at Verizon wireless. Unfortunately I have not met that goal, but I have worked at every other major cell phone retailer.
II. My present item is my motorcycle jacket. It represents my love for riding. I absolutely love getting on my bike and riding for hours. It’s my way to escape the stress and problems that the week throws at you. I love riding to the mountains, I have been on some back mountain roads that will scare the mess out of you even in a car. But when you’re on a bike it makes being there so much more enjoyable.
III. My future item is one that all of us need to keep in mind, a diploma. It’s something that I keep in mind the moment I start to slack off. I use it as a reminder to continue to work hard, because in the end this is what I truly want.
Conclusion
I. I brought these items because they are a big part of my life. They are not the only things that I could tell you a story about. But it’s what I felt meant the most to me right now in my life.
II. I’ll leave you on this final note. We all need to remember why we are here today. Not just to be a better speaker but to build confidence in ourselves. We all have great inside of us and we need to dig deep and pull it out.
