Question

Heather was in the midst of an excellent speech on campus history when she made a minor mistake by giving the wrong date for the opening of a campus building. She suddenly stopped speaking and said, "Oh, I messed up." Then she provided the correct date. The rest of her speech went well, but all she could think about afterward was her mistake. What is the major piece of advice from your textbook that Heather needs to be reminded about

Answer 1

Answer: the major piece of advice from my texbook that Heather needs to be reminded is  that "there is no such thing as a perfect speech".

Explanation:

Since we are human beings and it's within our nature to commit mistakes and audiences tend to praise what they like to listen and not the truth, we could say that speeches can be good but not perfect.
