After competing in the world's largest speech competition, winning at three different levels, and experiencing a notable loss, I have some specific things I've learned.

Even though they were highlighted during the course of this competition - these are honestly critical lessons that will keep you leveling up (in all areas) for the rest of your life, if applied.

There's immense value contained in this episode, and in these lessons.

Write them down, internalize them, use them!
