Who doesn’t like winning an award? We all do. 

When we receive an award,  it’s because we did something special or we have done something better  than anyone else has. These are great moments for us. When we get an award, we are often asked to stand up and say a few words. Oh, oh – this is where things can start to fall apart. If we don’t have  a plan for what we want to say, then we’re going to end up fumbling  over our words and we won’t do a good job of communicating. 

What is the best way to handle situations like this?
