Motivational speeches are intended not merely to elicit emotional arousal (fear, sadness, pleasure, or excitement) in the audience, but also to inspire the audience to act on that arousal. Motivational speeches are classified into four types: hero, survivor, religious, and success tale. These categories are not rigidly defined, so many speakers mix several types of talks. A hero speech is usually given by a person who has fought for what he believes in and won through adversity. These people are often called "lion hearts" because they are strong enough to fight for what they believe in even if it means being ridiculed or beaten up. To give a successful hero speech, you need to be able to connect with an audience on a personal level. For example, if the speaker had been through something similar to what she is now fighting for, then she would have more understanding of how the audience feels and could therefore speak more effectively. A survivor speech is given by someone who has gone through some sort of trauma, but has managed to come out on the other side intact. These people are often called "glass half full" because they see the good in everything even when there isn't much to be positive about. To give a successful survivor speech, you need to be able to relate to an audience on a human level.
