Startup Speakers - Toastmasters Meeting

TWIST OF FATE
Our life might change by chance in a strange, interesting, or unfortunate way. The twist could straightforwardly point out a new direction you should take in your life but in most cases, the twist looks quite unattractive and yet after a while, we call it a “blessing in disguise”. Let’s talk about the twist of fate which changed the course of our life and the life of others in Table Topics.
