INTRODUCTION

This speech was made by Arnold Schwarzenegger. At the time of Conference,

he was an American actress, notable for his part in "The Terminator" movie. The
speech was also given at the 'Power Weekend' event in Munich, hosted by the Jurgen
Holler Academy. Indeed, Arnold's speech was presented to all of his listeners to remind
people in general that something we've ever dreamed of before can be done if we truly
desire it and have a strong vision. The key argument is if we like something that we
have to focus hard for. Last but not least, this speech was delivered on 8 December
2018.

SUMMARY

According to Arnold Schwarzenegger's speech, he was talking about his life back
in Austria before coming to America. His parents wanted him to stay and work there and
have a regular life, but as he grew up, he didn't like Austria too much. He said he was
born for something extraordinary, something rare and something huge, not to become a
farmer and live in small farmhouses and small buildings. He was seeking to go to the
United States of America.

Besides, if you like anything, you've got to have a goal. If you haven't had a
A view of where you're headed, you're floating around, and you're never going
anywhere. When your vision is strong, and you know what your dreams are, you're
going to work tirelessly for that, and you're going to do everything and everything you
can to make it happen. Ok, whatever it takes.

In addition, Arnold spoke about the importance of getting a mission and a vision.
Often people don't know where they're headed because they don't have a clear vision
and a clear objective, just like Arnold. "I knew where I was going to go," he said. And
when you have an objective and a strong vision, it's all easy. When people still ask you,
"Why are you working so hard? "Just answer that; "I'm going to shoot for my targets."
That every action you take would make you closer to the target reached, to make the
goal a reality. He also said, "I went to London at the age of 20 and won the Mr. Universe
contest as the youngest Mr. Universe ever. And it was because I've had a target”.
Visualizing and moving after that makes it enjoyable. No matter what you do in life,
you've got to have a reason. That's why you need to have a strong vision and a mission
to make your life easier and not spend time on things you don't want.

ANALYSIS
1) The Introduction

In the speech, the speaker Arnold Schwarzenegger used the audience's

attention-raising techniques. He began his speech with a story when he was
raised in Austria during the Second World War. He said that when he grew up,
he didn't really like Austria. He couldn't see himself becoming a peasant, a
factory worker, or something like that. Even though his parents wanted him to
stay there and have a regular life just like the rest of Austria, he really wanted to
get out of there to achieve his dream. He told the audience that one day after
school, he was walking through a store in Graz and saw a bodybuilding
magazine with Rage Park as the front cover. Rage Park was three times that of
Mr. Universe. He read the magazine and said to himself, "Wow!’. That was just
what he was trying to do. And he went to London at the age of 20 and won the
Mr. Universe contest as the youngest Mr. Universe ever. It is all because he has
got a mission and a clear vision.

By using this kind of story, the audience can feel the same feeling as
Arnold's back in Austria. If the audience thought that, the audience would
concentrate more and enjoy every word he said and make the audience feel
impatient and ready to hear his next words. He managed to astound the
audience by only sharing his story before he became a Hollywood star, and that
was just the introduction of his speech. In other words, his presentation was
strong enough to make the audience mesmerize.

As we know, the introduction is the most important aspect of the speech,

since the introduction is the key to attracting the audience's attention and he did it
very well. Even though he was born in Austria and had some accent in his
language, it doesn't bother his voice, and the audience really enjoyed it.

2) The Body

The speech was well structured. Introduction, the body and the body. The
conclusion is well delivered. The audience assumed that Arnold I was very
professional and not afraid of failure because of how well his speech was delivered.
The audience can understand his entire speech clearly from the beginning to the
end. The speaker was given charge of the three essential sections of the speech,
the introduction, the body and the conclusion and the strategic position of each.

There are three key points in his speech:

I. Failure is fully natural and lets you develop and improve.
II. II. Any good individual is going through a lot of disappointment today.
III. III. Time organization is really important to help us grow our dreams.

In this address, the speaker arranged a speech on the basis of a problem-solving

order:

I. Issue:
Nowadays, people tend to be terrified of the disappointment that they are making a
strategy for all they're doing so they're not going to crash. They're scared that if they
fail, they'll lose everything and they won't be left with enough to survive on. People
still want to spend time now instead of practicing and developing their goals.

II. Solutions:
● Do not build Plan B and focus on Plan A as much as you can.
● Organize your time on a regular basis so that you can have time to build on
yourself and your dreams

3) The Conclusion

At the end of the expression, Arnold used an efficient process, which dissolve an
end. It generates an emotional appeal by fading step by step into a dramatic final
statement. The speaker said, "Don't care about losing, because when you're scared
of losing, you're going to get frozen. You feel rigid and you're not comfortable. In
order to do anything whether it's in wrestling or anything, it's just going to happen
when you're relaxed. Thus, rest, it's all right to crash. Let's just go ahead and give
everything you've got. That's what it's all about." This marked the end of his speech.
To emphasize the core point, he ended up with a quote—what that's it's all about.
The closing quote is effective since the urgency of the quotation is ideally tailored to
the voice. It captures well the core idea and the potential inference.

He made a dramatic point, too. "Don't be scared that it will fail, because good
people struggle a lot to get to where they are now." The assertion boosts the
audience's trust and spirit. That's more powerful because he said it in a persuasive
way, because it came from someone who was really good like him. It has given the
viewer the correct inflection.

4) Delivery Method

The speaker Arnold Schwarzenegger used extemporaneous speech for the

process. It is a random and wise speech by Mr. Arnold, which is described in a short
series of notes. It provides more detailed control over what kind of message he
needs to send. The speaker had free ownership of his thoughts and was not bound
to a manuscript. He was free to create a clear eye touch, to act instinctively, and to
concentrate on communicating to the crowd rather than condemning them. The
voice speakers can be evaluated in a few components. In certain areas of the voice,
the volume of the speaker is usually soft but loud.

Meanwhile, the pitch is low but strong in a few pieces, such as "Don't be afraid to
fail, successful people fail all the time." This is helpful in building an inspirational
atmosphere in the hall and persuading the crowd that failure is the right road to
succeed in existence. However, the pace is too slow, making it too dull and
repetitive. The speaker used pauses in the correct section of the speech, but did not
stop while the crowd clapped. This is very upsetting, because she can allow the
audience some time to respond so that they won't miss some points.

There's a vocal range in his voice. He had improvements in the pace, pitch and
volume of the speaker. This change has added to the expressiveness and
usefulness of expression, generating an inspirational, energetic atmosphere. The
grammar is fine, but the voice is misarticulated. In the beginning, he said "I want"
instead of "I want to." He delivered a speech in the General American accent, which
is ideal because the crowd comes not only from the United States, but from all over
the world. It is also appropriate to use the common dialect so that the listener knows
and gets the ideas correctly.

The speaker's body is evaluated in a few aspects: physical appearance,

movement, gestures and eye contact. Arnold Schwarzenegger's look during speech
is sleek and minimalist, with a black coat and a natural, tidy hairdo. It's just good, but

8
she's meant to impress the crowd with her voice, not her look like it was a formal
event. He made minimal gestures, such as eye contact and facial expressions, in
order to connect the crowd. He looked at the crowd as he spoke about how loss
could not be overlooked and grinned at the presentation to give a positive
impression and create trust and calmness. His hand movements were not obsessive
in his voice. There was, however, a moment when he clapped his hand while
speaking. It was a bit distracting. During the greeting, he tried to make eye contact
with the crowd.

DISCUSSION

What's positive about the speech is that the speaker Arnold Schwarzenegger has
a nice appearance, a good use of words, a strong speech, a powerful conclusion
and a little sense of humor at the beginning. He really reveals his remarkable
abilities to convince people to do what will help themselves. They made the crowd
pay attention to the speech and get absorbed in it. They felt empowerment and the
spirit to work tirelessly to make their dream come true.

What's wrong with speech is that certain hand motions are not needed in speech,
such as clapping hands during a motivational speech. The sound of that is a little
annoying, so we may lose the argument. His voice is so heavy, too, that it's sort of
hard to hear what he meant without the use of subtitles. So, he was expected to give
the speech slowly and plainly so that it could be heard.

Our own view, overall, is that the speech is very strong and has left an
impression on the crowd. It strengthens the spirit of working hard to get what you
deserve and not to be scared of defeat. The details included in the body are solid
and give view to the viewer as to how hard work and never giving up will give you
big success in the future. Minor errors have not impacted the whole voice.

10
CONCLUSION

In conclusion, working tirelessly to make your dream come true is something that
needs to be introduced in younger generations now, so that we can contribute to
society. We should also make it known to younger and also older generations that
loss is not something that you should be ashamed of.

Providing a population with numerous solutions to its challenges can be a way of

improving its confidence in taking chances in order to achieve success. You should
also invite successful people to activities and encourage them to share their inspiring
quotes about how to become successful people.
