I wanna share the stories that inspire my life, that’s my experience with my new community called KMPI (Komunitas Motivasi Pemuda Indonesia or Community of Motivational Indonesian Youth). KMPI is a non-political youth organization and is a gathering place for the youth Indonesia's longing for the glory of the nation. The Attendance of KMPI be the starting point of change in youth for the glory of the nation of Indonesia. KMPI is not yet well known among the youth of Indonesia as a new launching on November 1, 2009 so it was not even 2 years. I just joined this community in early 2011. It's not too long but the benefits that I've acquired over the join this community are absolutely spectacular.


I’mm beginning to join this community because I followed the public speaking program called "Bintang Revolusi (Star of the Revolution) : Motivational and Public Speaking Academy." Bintang Revolusi is KMPI program to create motivator, according to the name KMPI. I really want to improve my public speaking skills. As an industrial engineer, a good public speaking skill is very important especially to negotiate, corporate presentations, convincing customers, etc.


Public speaking is the process of speaking to a group of people deliberately and intended to inform, influence, or entertain the listener. The main purpose of public speaking can be achieved by delivering simple information so that it can motivate people to act. Public Speaking can be a workable tool if used for purposes such as to motivate, influence, persuade, inform, translate, or just entertain. Well, here's the knowledge I acquired during the course is not just about public speaking but also the science of motivation.


In the beginning of the Bintang Revolusi program, I did not know the vision of this program in detail. However, Bintang Revolusi not only helped me to improve my public speaking skills but also have a very noble social goals for this country. Bintang Revolusi is a program for youth who want to contribute to the country through the world of motivation so that members will be trained to become a reliable professional speaker. My goal was changed, besides improving my public speaking skills, but also be beneficial for a young man around me through the motivation to build the nation. Implicitly, I learned in this program not only to be a public speaker, but also became an agent of change through motivation that certainly should know about public speaking.

Consciously or not, the revolve of history in Indonesia led by youth and will continue so until the nation's prosperity. Today, the condition of youth is very ironic and worrying. Never mind the thought of contributing to the country, thinking of themselves and their purpose in life was difficult. The backbone (young generation) of the country are in danger of osteoporosis, the quantity that is not accompanied by the quality so it creates human resources that have not been able to compete. Cultural shifts as well as the swift flow of information give the deterioration of the nation. Then who will be the agents of change for Indonesia? Is the generation of drunks, free sex offender, or the pessimistic and apathetic one?

KMPI called to rebuild the country and build the character of Indonesian youth to become a excellent character of the potential possessed by the youth of Indonesia. Together KMPI, be the locomotive of character development and potential of youth that’s excellent, intelligent, and high achievers in Indonesia to meet the Indonesia superpower. Empowering the potential of Indonesian youth to produce spiritual awakening that preceded the social welfare and the establishment of self-awareness through the motivation of Indonesian youth.

One of the event of KMPI is motivational seminar in Jakarta, it was the event "Bangkitlah Pemuda, Bangkitlah Indonesia!” or “Arise Youth, Arise Indonesia!" that was held successfully in May 2011 in Bulungan Stadium, Jakarta. The event was attended by thousands of youth. In this next July, KMPI will hold a similar event with the name "Becoming the New You." KMPI with the majority of members are youth, collaborating together to achieve the goals of KMPI. I am very impressed at all with them. While other young people out there are enjoying their youth, they are striving to contribute to the country.

That's the story about my experience that inspired me to create a better world. We can change a better world by motivation. This starts from ourselves and then into the environment around us especially our beloved country, and the world. The proverbs said that a big changes starts from ourselves, start from now, and start from small things. If a big changes do not start from ourselves, then who will start?
