The
Honorable Mr.Masjari and Mrs.Azizah as our judges in this English Performance
Test. My name is Shafira Hany Maris. In this opportunity, I would like to deliver the speech about
Secret Keys to Pursue Total Quality Management.
Have
you ever heard the term
“total quality
management”?
What is total quality
management exactly? Total quality management or usually known as TQM in business world, is a process involving management and
employees continually finding ways to improve their products and services.
Now
the question is: how is it relevant with our daily life?
Ladies and gentlemen.
Lately, our beloved school had a
problem with the leak of Questions for Science Test in 1st semester.
What was exactly happen? What made it possible to happen in the most favorite
school ever in Probolinggo? Well, we can
say that the students of our school lacked the understanding of the total
quality management. They chose the wrong way to reach the top. They decided to
cheat rather than work by themselves.
As we know, the reason why we go
to school is to learn. If we are thinking about cheating, then we likely have
not learned something that is important enough to be tested on. Cheating will
not only make you lose the trust of your friends but also your teachers. Some
people might think that cheating is such a simple issue. But in fact, it will
make you be a bad person in the future. We might not have to worry because this
cheating issue can be solved by applying the total quality management in daily
life.
The
application of total quality management in our daily activities will make a balance life. Total quality management
will not only improve our life physically
but also mentally. Total quality
management is like a goal needed to be reached in everyday life. Having it
reached will help
us to live a
better life. That
way, we can be successful
in the future.
Ladies and gentlemen.
Each of us has been destined to be
a great and successful
person. But does everyone become successful in the future? Does everyone see a
bright light in the end? No. Even when we’re destined to be, not every one of
us is able to reach the top-the total quality management. Today
I am standing here because I
want to open a secret box that holds 5 amazingly powerful yet hidden weapons: the keys to pursue the total quality
management.
First weapon: SMARTNESS. Smartness
is indeed something you can’t easily
buy in E-Bay or another online commercial
site. But, I am sure we
can obtain it if we work
hard and never give up reaching the top. What I mean by smartness here is not just in
academical
way but also in emotional
and spiritual way. A smart person is capable of making a response to changing
circumstances. Being smart helps you distinguish something that is right or
wrong. It makes you a critical person. It makes every decision in your life reasonable and certain. Which is why
it can help you to be more efficient and effective in pursuing the total
quality management.
Second weapon:
DISCIPLINES. Can you imagine what will happen if everyone
in the world has no sense of disciplinary? The world will certainly be in a total chaos. Discipline promotes good human behavior
to better society and makes it a more pleasant place for everyone. A student
who is discipline in his/her actions and decisions is way ahead of the game.
The ability to focus and complete tasks increases with self-discipline.
Margaret Thatcher ever said, “Disciplining yourself to do what you know is
right and important, although difficult, is the highroad to pride, self-esteem,
and personal satisfaction.”
Third weapon:
PRIDE. Pride in one's self compels a person to push themselves to their limit,
and sometimes beyond. It shows that one has a motivation to complete a task and
do it to the best of their ability. Many
naturally talented people get their work done
just to get praise and acknowledgment from others, however when a person
finishes a task for them-even though they may not be as talented as the others;
it shows that they have integrity. Yet, all of that would not matter if you
don’t get praise because you did it for you. In the real world, people may
survive by only doing minimal work, but they will not get far. It is important
to take pride in one’s work because it will force your own mental to take the
extra step. In short, a sense of pride
will push you to do your best and bring you to the success you’ve been dreaming
of.
Fourth weapon:
SELF-CONFIDENCE. Some people were born with it, some have to work for it, and
others do not know how to obtain it. One really needs to be confident in what
they do in order to succeed. The more self-confidence you have the less anxious
you will be. One of the major reasons of why a
person is anxious is that they doubt their ability to handle a situation.
If we are confident enough that we can handle it correctly, we won’t feel anxious. Self-confidence cannot be taught, but it is reached by
the individual when they decide to believe in themselves. Dalai Lama said, “With
realization of one's own potential and self-confidence in one's ability, one
can build a better world.” And so did Helen Keller, Helen Keller said, “Optimism
is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and
confidence.”
Last weapon:
OBEDIENCE. Being obedient is not only limited to
our parents or teachers at school. Beside them, it is also important that we become obedient vertically towards our God. All of us
need God. We need God to pray to when we have done everything in our power with our hard work to make things happen. We need God to be
grateful to when we have all things that we need in life. We need God to be
successful. Because only with His blessings and guide we can get anything we
want. That is why being obedient to our God is necessary. We can be obedient by doing His order and
staying away from the things that He forbids
us to do.
So, ladies
and gentlemen.
Those are the secret weapons to
pursue the total quality management that I’ve shared with you. I have learned
those things from so many successful people in this world, and now I am going
to implement those to myself in daily life. Every day, people across the globe
are trying to find new ways to enrich their lives. Some face extreme challenges
and obstacles in this journey, causing them to be afraid of changing their
routines. While it can be a difficult process, the rewards for trying to live a
better life are worth the sweat and tears. Last but not least, I hope Indonesia can be a great country
if its society applies total quality management constantly and consistently in
their life. I used to imagine having a peace world was as easy as we flip over
our palms. And indeed, it will be so much easier if we do these secret keys. Let’s
build a better life for our young generation!
Well, I’ve shared the secret to pursue the total quality management
with you, I hope you would spread these words, tell your family, your friends.
Learn
it. Own it. Live it.
Ladies and Gentlemen. That’s all.
Thank you for your attention. Last
I say,
Wassalamualaikum Wr. Wb.
