that was my "speech" my first ever so be gentle!
Paolo Coelho in his book the Alchemist wrote:
There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible: Fear of Failure.
Only now, out of experience, I believe so much in this. During the past few days, I was this close to giving up on such a life changing experience as this, I have talked to my friends about it, I was worried about not having a plan ,and not being good enough- I was basically procrastinating, one thing I'm really good at! But AIESEC taught me to believe in myself and to have a vision, my very own version of “peace and fulfillment of humankind’s potential”-I have a purpose…even if it's a vague one- not really specific. But I know one thing: once I get this position (if I do), I will make this (my mini) vision as specific and to the point as can be. I am going to put all my effort into making the LC a better one, and making an impact on at least one member, I will "pay it forward" and let me end it by this; a quote from Arthur Josephson's speech, the one he gave in last year's IPM during the PAI election
"I offer you my mind, which seeks to learn, seeks to teach… seeks to find a better way forward. I offer you my vision, an engaged, relevant and successful AIESEC- a true force for global change. And I offer you my heart, which beats with the pulse of humanity, as do each of yours."
Amal, i said it to you this morning, but i owe it to you to say it again : i'm not doing this for you but rather because of you.thank you amal, thank you EB, Thank you LC!

Im so glad that you decided to take the step and apply. That in itself is a great step forward in overcoming the fear of failure which we all definately share! Love you sweety and your speech is great!
